How do I benchmark Doom 3?

How do I access the console?

You may want to run /timedemo demo1 a couple of times and take an average.

All benchmark or FPS numbers are for the most part meaningless unless 
you tell us what resolution you're running at.  If you're getting 38 fps 
and you're running the game at 1280x1024, that sounds about right for 
your system
With a similar setup (except and Athlon XP for me instead of an Athlon 
64) and running at 1024x768, I used to get around 46 fps with my 9800 Pro.
