IamBatosai Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Your setup should handle Oblivion just fine... I know this will sound silly. But some benchmarks show worse frame rates on lower settings with the 8800 GTX. (I think that's what you mean by Nvidia GTX 768 MB) Which kinda makes sense. Its an ultimate gaming card. So just as a test. Try running it at medium settings and resolution. And High settings and resolution. Also, this post has a very common reason for most lag and stuttering. And it has a fix too. As for upgrading processors. Don't. You won't find much gain by an extra 0.6 Ghz. Honestly its alot cheaper to just overclock your current CPU to 3.0 Ghz. Which is the speed of the QX6850 (Wow I didn't even have to look that up! I am such a geek! ;D ) especially since the QX6850 is over $1000 USD.

dyfed99 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Floydian1 had some issues with his 8800 GTX and the new 'NVidia drivers. He had to install older drivers to run Oblivion decently.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCJ Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Oblivion doesn't have really high requirements like Crysis do. You can already run that game at full speed with a Athlon 64x2 4000+ 2.2Ghz and 8600GT. The specs aren't great but is able to play Oblivion at high.

Guest Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I'm currently using: 8800gtxIntel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @2.7ghz (yeah overclocked by .3, must be a dud, I cant get it any higher >.<)2gb of Corsair Dominatrr pc2-8500 and I run Oblivion at 1680x1050, every setting to the max and 8x antialiasing + a mod that makes the textures bigger, and I get a constant 60+ FPS. I've seen it go down to 40 but rarely. I honestly have no idea what could be the problem with your rig, but it should be running it just fine, on the highest possible settings.
