Doom 3 - Multi-Threaded Test	Source: id Software

Doom 3 is the most advanced OpenGL game to date. It takes advantage of the latest videocard technology and pushes the processing power of the CPU to its absolute limits. At its highest setting, Ultra quality, texture sizes pass the 500MB mark which means even tomorrow's videocards will have a hard time running everything. The frame rates in the game itself are locked at 60 fps so anything above that point is wasted. Each test is run three times and with the third run being recorded.

The socket 939 AMD Athlon64 FX-60 fairs very well in the Doom3 multi-threaded test. Both the socket AM2 Athlon64 X2 5000+ and FX-62 trail the older generation chips at low resolutions. That is definitely very surprising.
