Ok my friend just bought an X800pro to play doom 3. However, he isn't getting very good speeds and he and I discussed possible reasons. Which one of these is most affecting the performane?

-His Mobo only supports 4X agp.
-His processor is a Pentium 4a running at 2.0ghz
-He only has 512MB of PC2700 RAM
 
What's the avg framerate he's getting? And what settings is he running it at? Regardless, AGP 4x is not the problem, since the AGP bus is definitely not a bottleneck in current games. The RAM is fine as well, at least good enough anyway. Of those things the only one I see as a possible problem is the processor, but still, he should be getting decent speeds depending on what settings he's using.
