Doom was released in 2016. Rocket League in 2015. 5+ years old, like I said.


It seems likely that Doom Eternal would also run acceptably on that machine, but that CPU generation and GPU are definitely on their way out.


Minimum requirement for Doom Enternal is a 1050 TI with 4GB, which is roughly 60% more powerful than a 750, nevermind that his card only has 2GB of VRAM.

(1050 TI: 6400 PassMark, 750 TI is 3800).

He's also well below the minimum CPU requirement.

A Xeon 1225 has a PassMark CPU score of 3,502. The minimum requirement for Doom Eternal is a 3.3Ghz i5, which, depending on which of the gazillions of i5 variants you mean, is a minimum of 5400.


> 3.3Ghz i5, which, depending on which of the gazillions of i5 variants

If they really mean any 3.3Ghz i5, I say the Xeon E3-1225 is clearly superior to the i5-660 (dual core @ 3.3Ghz).

I really wish people would give real minimum specs again. Pick a specific processor you've run it on that it won't run on any worse and specify what cpu features you need, if any, so you know a higher end processor from previous generations won't work.
