[Keikan]

Recondmended is probably

Intel Pentium 4 3.0ghz+
or
AMD Athlon XP 3200+ Barton

Some ATI or geforce 128mb card
512mb ram

t's in the best interest of the gaming companies to make their product as accessible to as many people as possible, not just the people with the bleeding edge machines.

One word and a number: SimCity 4...

Like twigboy hinted at; companies lie about their game's minimum requirements.

Some games, like Battlefield 1942, won't even start if you're below the minimum requirements. But others, like Vice City, actually play fine below the min (for me at least). I'm hoping that's also the case with Doom 3.

It will run on GF3 Ti500 (I belive HL2 will also be able to) You will need at least 1Ghz. 256 RAM. Just play the leaked version to find out if ur comp can handle it.

That's a pre-release alpha version that has not yet been optimized. I'm sure the finished game will support lower system specs, but I expect the minimum will be at least 800Mhz CPU, 128MB RAM, and 64MB Geforce or ATI video card.

Well think about it this way theire releasing it for the X box and Carmack said that by the time its released that it will run on a 400 mhz cpu you just need a good video card.

400MHz my ass... UT2k3 doesn't even run on 400MHz, and DOOM 3 is supposed to be a whole lot better.

Unreal Tournament 2003 reqs:

Operating System: WIN 98/ME/2000/XP
CPU: Pentium III or AMD Athlon 733MHz processor (*Pentium® or AMD 1.0 GHz or greater RECOMMENDED)
Memory: 128 MB RAM (256 MB RAM or greater RECOMMENDED)
Hard Disk Space: 3 GB
CD ROM or CD/DVD ROM: 8X
Audio System: Windows® compatible sound card (*Sound Blaster® Audigy™ series sound card RECOMMENDED) (NVIDIA® nForce™ or other motherboards/soundcards containing the Dolby® Digital Interactive Content Encoder required for Dolby Digital audio. Also RECOMMENDED)
Video System: 3D Accelerator card with 16 MB VRAM (*32-128 MB VRAM RECOMMENDED) 16 MB TNT2-class DirectX® version 6 compliant video card. (*NVIDIA GeForce 2/ATI Radeon RECOMMENDED) DirectX® version 8.1 (Included on game disc)

Don't expect anything less than UT2k3's recommended reqs as DOOM 3's minimum reqs.

For comparison, here's PlanetSide's system reqs.

Windows® 98/2000/ME/XP
Pentium® III 1.0 GHz or greater
256 MB RAM
Direct3D compliant video card with 32MB RAM *
DirectX 8.1 compatible sound card
56k + Internet connection
4X speed CD-ROM
3.25 GB hard drive space
DirectX 8.1 or greater

* Note: All Direct 3D cards not supported. (See complete supported video card list)

Recommended Specs:

Windows® 98/2000/ME/XP
Pentium® III 1.6 GHz or greater
512 MB RAM
Direct3D compliant video card with 64MB+ RAM
DirectX 8.1 compatible sound card
Broadband Internet connection
8X speed CD-ROM
3.5 GB hard drive space
