id Software Developer Billy Kahn said that the id Tech 7 engine that powers Doom Eternal is capable of running at a thousand frames per second. So two overclockers tried it. They overclocked and cooled the following build with liquid nitrogen:

  • CPU: Intel Core i7-9700K @ 6,6GHz
  • motherboard: ASUS Maximus XI Apex
  • graphics card: Asus RTX 2080 Ti Strix @ 2,4GHz
  • RAM: HyperX Predator 4000 MHz CL19 2x8GB
  • SSD: Samsung 512GB M.2 NVMe Evo Plus
  • source: Be Quiet 1200W Straight Power

At 720p resolution and HDR turned off, the game ran at 600 fps. The desired value of 1000 fps was achieved when looking at a black wall. Maybe it's a bit of a scam, but it worked. Of course, it is clear that these values ​​have no meaning, given the standard 144 Hz monitors. You can see the test below the paragraph.
