GPU period-correct (my favorite 🤣 ) only limits the GPU, you are free to use any CPU and MB you want. I did some research and (most) of the allowed hardware is written at the start of each category. CPU & GPU period correct must use CPU + GPU + chipset launched before December 31st of that year. So I've prepared four period-correct rankings for years 1999-2002 - each split in two parts.

Q3A launched at the end of 1999 and the last (official) patch 1.32 was released sometime in 2002 I think. I found this consistently to be the case on my system - it took two sets of changes and two restarts for all the higher settings to 'stick'.We already have a very nice Doom 3 thread, so why not start another one for Q3A? Back in the day it was the top game to use for GPU benchmarks. After setting your video quality level, you will have to check and alter your other settings (Display Size and Advanced Settings in particular), exit and restart the game to apply the changes, then once again check your settings and maybe even do another exit and restart. Quake 4 will actively alter your other settings to attempt to balance performance, even though this may be undesirable. When changing the Video Quality settings, pay close attention to all your other settings.

This will improve performance while still maintaining relatively high texture quality.

If you want to use High or Ultra video quality, but don't want to use 8x Anisotropic Filtering see the image_anisotropy setting under the Advanced Tweaking section for details on how to set a custom level of Anisotropic Filtering (or turn it off).

People with slower 256MB graphics cards and/or slower systems may notice stuttering and frequent loading pauses with Ultra quality. However I also have a fast Raptor RAID 0 hard drive setup and 2GB of RAM, so if textures do need to quickly swap into memory from RAM or the hard drive, they can be accessed fast enough not to show any visible loading pauses.

Even though Ultra quality is meant to be for 512MB graphics cards, it runs quite smoothly on my 256MB 7800GTX.

Some important things to note about Video Quality:
