My Doom 3 Benchmarks

[Acanthus]

Considering even review sites are reporting hiccups on the ultra settings during room transitions, because you are using more memory than any graphics card out today has for textures. Id say youre lieing.

No i don't believe he is..

I know what hard OCP says, but look at the "Ultimate D3 system " other than 1 vs. 2 GB of ram, they are pretty damn close..

I for one and running

1600x1200 ULTRA setting.

Runs like a dream.. I was extremely suprised at how well.. LITERALLY no slowdown, except after a save game ( about 2 seconds ) and then it's $$$money$$$ from there...

Even if a full out action scene, literally not slowdown..

Well coded, and runs great..

Wait till you play it before calling him out on it, cause i think you will be suprised.

No i didn't just stare at the wall and write the FPS. I PLAYED through the Aplha labs level..... I fought monsters, ran strafed and jumped, and i used the flashlight a lot. How do I run the standardozed demo? I couldn't find it... tell me how and ill be m,ore than happy to post those results.

 

[Keysplayr]

So this is what we have to look forward to in the next few weeks. Folks posting unrealistic BS. Oh well, I guess it was inevitable.

EDIT: A little harsh. Apologies. :beer:

You type timedemo demo1 1
at the console, that you bring down by pressing ctrl-alt-~

But ram doesnt matter here, nothing matters here, you cant maintain 30+ fps while texture swapping from memory, unless you somehow have 256bit GDDR3 for system memory, and PCI-Express X 64 to push 40GB/sec across the bus.

512MB cards dont exsist, texture swapping causes an fps skydive... therefore... lies.

 

[Avalon]

The ultra settings can use UP TO 500mb of video memory. It was never specified in what places in the game this occurs. Perhaps it is just a rare occurence when video memory usage gets up to that high, and ID is merely giving us a warning for this setting.

 

[bjc112]

To clarify an issue we've noticed across the board, Ultra Quality runs perfectly fine on current generation high end hardware. Yes, the game recommends >500 MB of nice fast graphics RAM, as do we if one's intention is to play through the single player game. But, it is very important to note that all the multiplayer maps we've played on in the past few hours have been small enough to avoid the massive swapping that occurs when moving between parts of the world on the single player map.

From Anand's review...

Any you were saying guys

 

[DAPUNISHER]

Wether his benchies are accurate or not, I believe it's safe to conclude that if he was using a 6800GT/U the numbers would be higher. If he is getting that level of performance though I'd be pleasently surprised.

 

[Selso2109]

No matter what i post you guys wouldn't believe me anyways. I'm going to check out that demo later but the bottom line is I don't careif you believe or not because I'm the one enjoying the kickass settings either way. I only posted this so someone looking to get a comp to play at these settings could have an example of a system that works... and yes imagine if i had the 6800 ultra teamed with my processor and ram..... I'm happy with the X800 XT the way it is though

 

[DAPUNISHER]

Selso2109,

I intend no offense, but if you wish to establish credibility you are going about it bass ackwards so to speak. Post relevant verfiable benchmark data that others can easily reference or don't bother. Your post seems to make the ATi X800XT look better in this title than perhaps it is, that raises a red flag for the members here. Your testing methodology sucks is the bottom line, so run the timedemo and post the results or stop posting about D3 benchmark scores

An example that they can compare to what? With the way you're testing there is no point of reference. Why don't you just run the timedemo? It takes two seconds to type it in.

You'd better watch it, he's not named DAPUNISHER for nothing.

 

[LeGaCi]

System:
Athlon 64 2800+ OC
PNY 6800 GT OC (400/1100)
Abit KV8
1 gb corsair

HIGH:
1280x1024 - 71.2 fps no AA
1600x1200 - 62.5 fps no AA

ULTRA:
1024x768 - 74.2 fps no AA
1280x1024 - 69.2 fps no AA

1600x1200 - 60.2 fps no AA
1600x1200 - 51.6 fps 2xAA
1600x1200 - 38.9 fps 4xAA

YES! these results actually surprised me as well. I had a problem earlier where I would be getting slideshows of every special effect going on, but I found out that was due to my duel monitors. Once I changed it to single, it works perfectly.
I ran these test twice for each one because I didn't believe what I was seeing, especially in the ultra. I played the Ultra quality 1600x1200 and it seems to work great so far.

No, they are not lies..

Look at Anand's benchmarks..

And look what we are telling you.

1600x1200 is easily playable.. High action scenes, as well as everything else.

 

[FluxCap]

Asus P4P800 Deluxe
P4 3.0C
1024mb Corsair XMS PC3200
eVGA 6800GT (61.77)


1600x1200
High Quality(0AA+8AF)
All graphic options on except VSYNC
56.5fps avg :evil:

 

[Brian48]

x800xt, HIGH quality setting
1280x1024, No FSAA/x8 Aniso
Cat 4.7 = 66.3 fps
Cat 4.9b = 69.9 fps

9800Pro, MEDIUM quality setting
1152x864, No FSAA/x8 Aniso
Cat 4.9b = 39.8 fps

9700Pro, MEDIUM quality setting
1024x768, No FSAA/x8 Aniso
Cat 4.9b = 40.9 fps

There was practically ZERO difference between Cat 4.7 and Cat 4.9b with the 9800Pro and 9700Pro so I didn't bother to document the scores.

Brian,

70FPS is awesome... You EASILY can attain and awesome frame rate at ultra settings..

I'm spoiled. I want about 90+
