Doom3 is quite scalable, performance to hardware, without giving up TOO much 
detail and quality.

If you have middling level hardware, you can't expect to run the game with 
maxed out settings in higher resolutions and get smooth performance.

I have a pretty good setup for running Doom3 at even Ultra quality settings 
with resolution at 1024x768.   And, that's already a trade-off.   UpsetChaps 
have a tweak guide for Doom3.   You might want to have a look at that and 
follow their lead for the level of hardware you're using.

Scroll down to 'Connection, framerate and Visual Tweaks' section.   The 
whole guide was a help to me for getting it playing well on a 3.0E gHz P4, 1 
gig of PC3200 in dual channel and Radeon 9800 Pro.

My rig is a different one now, AMD A64 X2 4800+, 2 gigs PC3200 in dual 
channel, 6800 GT.  Even with that, I can't run in Ultra Quality at 1280x1024 
and get smooth gameplay throughout.
