I just noticed that we can edit again! All hail the return of the edit button! (It was probably many months ago but I have been buisy.)
Most scores are updated. Some scores are missing motherboard information so I skipped those for now.
I bought a cheap Asus P5B Deluxe P965 + E6600 + 2x1GB DDR2-800 bundle for £12.70 on Ebay with cheap shipping. The board has a couple of vented (non VRM) caps not visable in the seller pictures (not that I can complain for that price) so I thought that I would test the board to see if it works fine as is or if I have to recap it. I also have a few CPUs and video cards that I need to test. I started with a Core 2 X6800 I bought a week ago and a Geforce 7950 GX2 I bought years ago but never got to testing.
I did a quick overclock with the CPU at 3.6GHz, the memory at 1000 MHz and the 7950 GX2 at 600 core 800 memory. Everything is stable so I guess those vented caps near the PCI-slot populated by the X-Fi card aren't crucial.
Here is a picture showing the P5B Deluxe test system. The extra fans cooling the video card are not really needed and turned down to low with the fan controller. I thought the 7950 GX2 would run hot but this one dosn't seem to run hotter than other Geforce 7 series cards. I also thought I would need more voltage to get the memory to where I wanted it but 1000 MHz with 4-4-4-12 timings only took 2.1V so the fan cooling the memory was't really needed either. The CPU is more or less running 3.6 at stock voltage with only a little extra added to offset drop and droop.

Nice to see that a true July 2006 "Conroe launch" system can beat both phils i7 3770 system and MrEWhites i7 7700 system when it comes to Doom 3 even if it mostly is because they run newer OS and/or Doom 3 versions.
I will try to actually get to replacing more of the scores I have posted with the 1.3 Doom 3 version with (hopefully better) scores set with the 1.0 Doom 3 version. It's a bit strange to see the dual Opteron 248 system on top in the stock period correct list when we all know the FX55 should be way faster.
