My overall score was something like 1400 (hahaha). I hope this isn't a future trend for games though. I had the Doom 3 beta running a 30 FPS at one point, but only steadily at about 10-15 FPS.
Will be a nightmare come release date if it stays like that because I can't even afford an 80mm fan atm  |
3DM03 is entirely GPU based, even my lowly AXP2000+ managed to score 5000+ pts due to my GFX card.
anyway, 3DM03 isn't a very good benchmark for todays games, but no doubt in the far future games will be offloaded more to the GPU, probably the only thing left for the CPU to do is computer AI and game physics.
as for DM3 i can't say, but no doubt it would run ALOT better than the beta, your 64mb of VRAM might limit you though, apparently DM3 uses heavy texturing
PS your Ti4200 can't run Mother Nature
