Science has unlocked the gates to the unknown, and now only one man stands between Hell and Earth. A sci-fi horror masterpiece, DOOM 3 is like nothing you have experienced. Dramatic storyline, pulse-pounding action, incredible graphics, and revolutionary technology combine to draw you into the most frightening and gripping first person gaming experience ever created.
The ruins of an ancient martian civilization have unlocked the secrets to teleportation, and the UAC will stop at nothing to harness this world-altering technology. As part of a marine detachment sent to protect the facility, your duty seemed simple enough... until the invasion. Now, in an epic clash against pure evil you must fight to understand who is with you, who is against you, and what must be done to stop this nightmare from reaching earth.

PC Specs
My graphics card is weaker and it ran Doom 3 really well, yours should have less problems, also your CPU is stronger than the minimum one
PC Specs
I voted yes because... i can max settings with no video card just chipset g33
PC Specs
Can I run Doom 3?
PC Specs
I think you are able ;)
PC Specs
Could I max this out at 60fps?
PC Specs
can i run this on my potato?
PC Specs
No
PC Specs
So, the one on Steam says that it does not support Windows 7, and I have Win7 and I'd really like to get this game. Can I get some verification from someone more tech-savvy, pls?
PC Specs
I'm running Windows 7 and I can play it fine, you may have to tweak some stuff in the config file to get it working properly, especially if you want it in 16:9 aspect ratio. But to answer your question yes it should work fine on Windows 7.
PC Specs
Settings and fps?
PC Specs
Can i run it?settings?
PC Specs
With an atom and intel, no. try upgrading bro. :)
PC Specs
Well i ran it on 30 FPS on high lol
PC Specs
I can't believe it. I need proof. Anyway, it's good to hear it can run in your rig and even though you set it the game's setting high. that's remarkable!
PC Specs
Ik i thought i could'nt run it but once i installed it played everything works fine on high i tried ultra,ultra my fps drops to 9-0 lol
PC Specs
can i play on lowest with 800x600 resolution for 15+ fps?
PC Specs
Really? you can go for ultra settings 1080p for more than 45 fps.
PC Specs
Hey guys, I have a pretty up to date upper-middle class gaming rig yet the game simply won't allow me to run it at anything higher than low settings. Anyone have a fix? Oh and also, I'm using Win 7.
PC Specs
It's something weird to do with the resolution, I get the same problem. You're going to want to install the sikkmod and the texture pack it comes with, I can't remember the exact link but there's a DL on moddb that'll be what you need. It really looks nice and it even destroys my system. Gotta get to OC that 4690k :D
PC Specs
what fps and how can i improove i have 740mb ram btw close to 1GB
PC Specs
@ cuban boy I had that same processor and a 5200 ultra. And ran this at high settings with 40 fps. So put everything at its highest buddy :) dont use AA though :)
PC Specs
What's my settings and fps for this game?
(It says GPU: 34%. Is my GPU good at all or should I get a new one? Can you suggest one?)
PC Specs
Your GPU is old and really weak : ( . If you want to buy a new one just figure out a budget and come back here : )
PC Specs
Ha, I had that same rig. Try high settings for playable FPS buddy. But i had a pentium D. Play at 1024 for best results with that GPU... much outdated.
PC Specs
can i play on 40 fps?? or 30 at least?
PC Specs
I think you will be able to play with 30 FPS.
PC Specs

If you are a Doom fan or are just a lover of the 90s then please subscribe to my Youtube channel as I will be uploading a 'History Of The Doom Franchise' Within the next few days.
PC Specs
Can somebody please help, I'm running this at 1280x768 maxed out with AA at 60 FPS always, but I have big black bars on the left and right side of the screen no matter what resolution I run it at, does anybody know how to fix this? (note that I am using a real version of the game, not a pirated version)
PC Specs
Do you have the original Doom 3 or the BFG edition?, if you have the original, then you can't because the original Doom 3 has problems with AA, so you'll have to keep AA off, if that's not your max resolution, change it to your max res, if it is, well your pretty screwed with Doom 3
PC Specs
My fps on high?
PC Specs
60+
PC Specs
for recommended i'm +88% for cpu and +34% for gpu,can i run it with high settings?
PC Specs
Yes you can run this on High settings. :)
PC Specs
Thanks,but i tried the demo and i can't run it with wins**t 8 whatever the compatibility i tried or as admin :/
PC Specs
So basically it says I can run this game, but when try to play it, no matter what I do it lags HARD. Whether it be on Low, Medium, High, Or Ultra. It makes me sad because I love this game. Is it a compatibility issue with Win7?
PC Specs
no, the 6150se is a very bad igpu :/, even if it was XP it probably would still lag like a *****
PC Specs
my gpu is 54% worse and i have the same problem it might be compatibility issue or the fact that i have Geforce 7300 LE, try putting it at low settings and put the mouse sensitivity to highest setting and see what happens
PC Specs
Why do i have very low FPS while playing this game?
PC Specs
I think its coz your using higher than windows xp and this is not on gog (i wish it is)
