Basically what >>4219502 said, though I prefer vanilla quake III to CPMA. Quake world is actually the fastest of the 3, and if you're a newfag you might not be able to git gud unless you have a quaker friend telling you how to, 'cause the fights are alway really short as soon as armor runs out.

Anyway, I'm pretty happy with the performances of my late-90s PC setup when it comes to Quake games in general -- GL Quake runs perfectly, so does Quake II, and Quake III has a decent framerate. Actually running windows 2000 with a 750MHz Pentium III, a Voodoo 3 3000 AGP and a Yamaha XG-based soundcard (not that useful for Quake but MIDI stuff sound great on it). There's the possibility to add a second CPU (the machine has 2 slot1 slots, it was meant to be a medium-sized server) but I think I'd be better off getting 2 1GHz slot1 Pentium III (such setup would totally blow in Quake III).
