Mesh 7EVEN (7600K & GTX 1060) Gaming PC Review

DOOM is a science fiction horror first-person shooter video game developed by id Software and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is a reboot of the Doom series and is the first major instalment in the series since the release of Doom 3 in 2004 and the fourth title in the main series of games.

The game is played entirely from a first-person perspective, with players’ taking the role of an unnamed marine, as he battles demonic forces from Hell that have been unleashed by the Union Aerospace Corporation on a future-set colonised planet Mars.

We test using the ‘ultra’ preset. Given Doom does not have its own in-built benchmark, I tested at the beginning of the game as the player destroys the very first Gore Nest. I benchmarked 3 closely-matched runs and then took the average figures from those runs to present here.

Doom is a well-optimised title, offering great frame rates at both 1080p and 1440p resolutions – at 1440p, the frame rate stayed above 60fps at all times, which is particularly impressive. 4K gaming does get a bit choppy as the frame rate drops into the 30s, though many would still consider this playable.
