Early indications suggest that the target system for Doom 3 will be a 700 mhz system with 128 megabytes of RAM and a "high-end" video card (assumably GeForce-level or higher). However, these specs are very tentative and will probably change multiple times. There will probably be versions released for Windows, Linux, and Mac.

Halflife2: While the new engine has all sorts of fancy features, it's still designed to scale and work on lower-end machines. Apparently a 700mhz processor and a video card capable of running DX6 is enough, although a 2ghz with a GeForce4 is recommended.

Reality, I think a 2.8 Ghz, 256 Meg RAM, Geforce 4 or Higher ATI 9200 or Higher. For all the bells and whistles. GeForce 5900, ATI 9800. IMHO
