Todd Hollenshead, id's chief executive, said Doom 3 will require:
• A 1.5-gigahertz Intel Pentium 4 chip or AMD Athlon 1500.
• 384 megabytes of memory.
• Two gigabytes of hard drive space.
• An nVidia GeForce 3 graphics card or better; or an ATI Technologies 8500 or better.

I would assume these are the minimum requirements...

More than likely...I wonder though...

It seems like the press is making a huge deal out of the fact that people will need to upgrade their machines to play this game...

Quite frankly most games I play require a 1 GHz PC with 256 MB of RAM bare minimum...and these games are fairly old...

Another example perhaps of the press not knowing much about tech? :confused:
