Switch Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Supported Video Card Chipsets: * ATI X1900 series * ATI X1800 series * ATI X1600 series * ATI X1300 series * ATI X850 series * ATI x800 series * ATI x700 series * ATI x600 series * ATI Radeon 9800 series * ATI Radeon 9700 series * ATI Radeon 9600 series * ATI Radeon 9500 series * NVIDIA GeForce 7800 series * NVIDIA GeForce 6800 series * NVIDIA GeForce 6600 series * NVIDIA GeForce 6200 series * NVIDIA GeForce FX series^ From the official site. So yes, your card should be enough, but I wouldn't put the game too far past Low settings personally. If you run into problems, there's always Oldblivion.

Guest Tessera Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 A mere 128 megs of VRAM is gonna give you problems in Oblivion. Switch is right -- you'd better keep almost all of the video settings on the low end of the scale. One thing for sure... if you use that particular video card, turn distant grass and trees completely OFF in Oblivion, or your outdoor lag will be tremendous. I wouldn't use any shadows or high-quality water settings, either. The game will still look great, it just won't be ultra-yummy for you... but in the case of a 6200 card, it's more important to tune things for performance rather than quality.

I didnt have the graphics cranked up but it was still pretty goodlookin. :D The only reason i want a supported card is so i can use the tes4 construction set.

It's all good... Oblivion looks pretty awsome no matter what graphics settings you use. It's a gorgeous game, even on low-end cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
