getting ~21 FPS would be a huge disappointment to me. While the OP doesn't want to piss away money, he also stated money is not a huge issue. 1600x1200 is a pretty demanding requirement for Oblivion and at that resolution this would be the first time where...

at any higher resolution that 1600x1200...hell for that matter, nto even 1280x1024, i saw absoultely no difference, except for a decrease in frames... i want to play oblivion perfectly smooth, as video games should be played, with all eye candy and a good resolution...

on like 16aa 16 af on 1600x 1200 if you still it is bottle necked then put on multisampling . If still then KILL THE CARD WITH SUPERSAMPLING - that kills it hehehe :lol: But otherwise oblivion, fear, Casear4 , Coh, Tiger woods 06, Rise of Legends, Half-life...

temperature is about 80C at this point. I have Oblivion patched to the latest version, and I have AA set at 4X, and AF set at 8X. I run Oblivion at a resolution of 1280X1024. Could my card be faulty? It is rather unnerving that the Fan will speed up,...

Radeon X1950XT going cheap!. Just thought I would share this, its a pretty good deal! MSI X1950XT 256MB for £175! . Just thought I would share this, its a pretty good deal! MSI X1950XT 256MB for £175! It should get even cheaper once Vista is...

badass on screens like that right? 2560x1600 I believe you need dual 8800 GTX's to get "good" performance in Oblivion at that resolution, but we won't really know until we see DX10 performance on the 8800 GTX. It might actually get more frame rates and look...

games like crysis and oblivion. 8800gtx or 8800gts? im willing to pay more for a little more performance btw: i play games like crysis and oblivion at this resolution both are same..in fact gts might be a bit ahead. GTS Both will be overkill but there...

has a max resolution of 1680x1050. At 1600x1200 the GTS pulls about 100fps in Oblivion (with a C2D X6800). Dunno what ur using now for a CPU, but a GTS will likely give you at least 60fps in Oblivion at that resolution (1680x1050) with most eye candy on high....

I was referring to in my previous post were the upcoming 9900. Yes I play on 1900 x 1200 resolution that's one of the reason I only get 23 average FPS in crysis. I play crysis, world in conflict, supreme commander. Right now what I'm leaning toward just getting...
