Time for some more Ivy Bridge fueled fun. 😀 This thing could probably hit 600 frames at 4.6GHz, but I'd rather not take this CPU beyond 1.25v.

1024x768 Ultra:
CPU usage during the timedemo peaks at 14%, so the game is nearly maxing out two threads, but not any more than that. DX12 can't come soon enough. 😀

Finally had a chance to do this ^^:
Pentium III 800EB, Asus CUSL2-C (Socket 370), 512mb PC133 SDRAM, NVIDIA GeForce 3 Ti 200 64mb AGP (30.82 WHQL drivers), Turtle Beach Santa Cruz, DirectX 9.0c, Windows XP SP3.
1024x768 Ultra Quality=6.0
Can't believe what I got with stock settings; I'm not done yet, though. I got a couple of Celerons on hand (400MHz Mendocino and 600MHz Coppermine), time to give them a run as well 😁
Ooohh, the pain......
darn ive hit a wall, board wont go over 291 bus, at 292 it wont boot into windows no matter what 🙁

I do also own an Epox 9nda3j board, I use mine with some dual core Opteron and an Asus Geforce 3 as a video capture system. My board did not want to go over 300 reference clock either if I remember correctly. Repasting the chipset heatsink and making sure there is a working fan on it gained me a few MHz.
Nice score at 2.6 GHz though 😀, pretty much equal to my stock scores with the FX55 so we get about the same scaling. We need to figure out Steves and havlis secrets! Hypothesis number one, they are not using Doom 3 v1.3/v1.31

I'm curious myself, but I'm limited to the steam version, then using an old 1.30 nocd on the steam copy so i dont have to run steam in backgroud

Well that explains why our systems perform similar, we are using exactly the same version. I think using the Steam version without 1.30 nocd also performs the same but Im not totally sure

Well im trying to find a physcial copy of doom3 retail to test with 🤣
Doom3 v1.3 indeed runs slower. I had no idea until now... patches usually bring more speed, not take it away. 😊
Here is screenshot of the 1.3 timedemo - 104.3 fps.
Same hardware and configuration as before.
I must try harder to get back to the first place. 😀

well that makes me feel better knowing that my system isnt broken
will our steam keys for doom3 work on retail disks?
Hmm this is interesting. I'm running an original boxed copy with the v131 patch. They dropped DRM from v12 onwards I think - at least I'm not prompted for disks at any rate. Maybe I'll re-install v1 to see the speed diff..
yea im searching for mine, when they had it on steam during one of the sales i got it and roe for i think 9.99 and i put up my disks, that was a few years ago.
well couldn't find my original disk, but good news the Steam CD key for Doom3, not BFG but original doom3 works fine with retail disks, I managed to get a buddy online to rip me iso's of his original disks and am installing them with my steam doom3 key lets give this a whirl 🤣
Same Settings as previous OC for Opty
stock settings opty doom 1.0
I'm running the retail edition I bought back in 2005 without any additional patches, so it's gotta be one of the earlier versions.

Getting a new CPU in soon. Going to see if it will fix my low FPS (i7 4790k)
