To benchmark, simply open the game, open the console and type "timedemo demo1". Please give results from 800x600 in windowed mode, as fullscreen seems to have VSync enabled.
Quake only uses 1 single core, but it utilizes that single core 100%.
Anyways, here are my results:
=========
** Demo 1 ** (10 runs)
Lowest FPS: 733
Highest FPS: 743
Not bad
