If you want awesome graphics use JDoom. However, JDoom has not even Boom support (please correct me if I'm wrong), so you're stuck with older levels (and some new ones) here. ZDooM has many more features and stuff. My advice? Wait for STGL :)

As Tarin said, JDooM gives you great graphics, and the use of accelerated graphics ports for truer 3-D effects. However, ZDooM is vastly more versatile in terms of gameplay options.

Boom is an extension of the original doom2 source code that adds mostly a bunch of editing effects which means modern-day doom editors can incorporate effects that weren't possible previously into their levels, or in other cases make effects that would take a great deal more effort originally. Its usually considered the 'base' port to start developing from when creating a source port. Most source ports have boom support.

.. but don't forget that there is a open gl version of zdoom v1.22 too....

....which is rather instable and crappy (ATM?)

I would say Zdoom, but the Gl doesnt work right for me, and I can play it split screen with friends, so I'd get legacy, which is the easiest to use.
