Cheers I'm dl now, it's a shame they don't demo most games as I remember the PS1 days almost every game had a demo to try before buying. Ah well at least I can see what this one's like.

Played for 10 minutes and uninstalled. Looks amazing but ( after years and years of playing them) like most fps nowadays they are all the same with a little twist or sizzle to sell. But that's the great things about demos! Try before you buy.

Completely agree - more studios/publishers need to release demos that allow us to see how the game is or how it runs on our systems. Now it's more of a gamble, if it works it works, if it doesn't, it doesn't, and if it's good it's good, if not you're SOL.

Another thing.... 8Gb is borderline. I had 8Gb RAM but couldn't get this running reliably until I borrowed an extra 2gb from an old machine. Closing unnecessary process, programmes etc didn't improve things. The extra RAM fixed it so I ended up buying 8gb and putting the old 2gb back in the garage. Doom does not crash at all now with 16gb.
Others have found 8gb is ok though so it varies.

Runs at a steady 60fps on high/ultra settings with vsync on. No dips. The game is optimised really well and runs great.
No performance issues whatsoever.
