Depends on your mod load. But outside in Vanilla Oblivion you should be getting 40 to 60 FPS

Have you looked at optimizing your Oblivion? Here is one place to look at optimizing: http://www.tweakguides.com/Oblivion_1.html

32 FPS? Lucky so-and-so... I can't really help much with this, as my FPS is abysmal.

If 32 fps is your low your laughing. ;D

 

If it's your average, and you don't drop below 20

you should still have an ear to ear grin :biggrin:

I consider 32 to be very good. However, are you using Streamline? It has a function that limits FPS to gain sight distance on the fly. If you are getting 32, you definitely don't need Streamline as it was intended for lower capability systems. It relies on reducing visual factors, such as being able to see objects, npc etc at a distance to keep your FPS inside of a preset value - in your case, something like between 25 and 32. If you reach the upper limit, it increases the distance you can see things and limits the fps to compensate. If you have a medium system it won't help much, on a high end system it actually reduces game performance. It only helps on lower end systems that would have major problems getting even 15 fps without it.
