Brutal Doom Black Edition Demonstrated on Top Spec Hardware from 2006!

[Irinikus]

I only discovered these Doom Mods a day ago and thought that it would be interesting to see if they'd run on older hardware!

Alienware Area51 7500 - Machine Specs:

* EVGA nForce 680i SLI Motherboard
* QX6850 @ 3.67GHz
* 8GB Patriot DDR2 @ 800MHz CL 4-4-4-12
* Quadro Plex 1000 Model IV (Dual Quadro FX 5600)
* Two Kingston 240GB A400 SATA 3 2.5" Internal SSD SA400S37/240G - HDD’s in RAID 0
* Fusion-io ioDrive2Duo 2.4TB MLC Flash SSD PCIe Accelerator Card

This video shows the actual performance of an Nvidia Quadro Plex 1000 Model IV when running the first two levels of Doom 1

Take note of the graphics memory usage! (Way beyond the scope of most GPU's from the 2006 era!!!)
