<blockquote><em>What all these gamers are discovering as soon as they boot up Oblivion is that the game is more demanding than anyone expected, as we showed you in our performance tests with the latest high-end cards last week, even the latest GeForce and Radeon cards can be brought to their knees if you don’t keep the eye candy settings in check. In hindsight we probably cranked the settings up a little too high for that article, we were running the cards with the highest visual settings available and in some ways that really isn’t feasible unless you’re running two graphics cards for SLI or CrossFire. For our second Oblivion performance article we’re running with more affordable graphics cards in the $120-$250 range. These cards don’t have the shading horsepower and memory bandwidth of the high-end cards we tested with last week, so we’re going to be more aggressive in tweaking the settings for optimal performance rather than image quality.</em></blockquote>
. After a lot of experiments I have come to the conclusion that Oblivion eats CPU more than GPU. Best proof: On my system (3700+, 7800GTX), I get exactly the same framerates at 640x480 and 1600x1200. So my video card is rather bored, while my CPU sweats like during a workout.
