I'm running a pretty good PC, yet Oblivion STILL lags like a ***** from time to time... sometimes I get a respectable framerate of about 35, and sometimes it drops to about 15, usually when in someones house...
That's gotta be over the minimum specs, is it something to do with graphics card drivers? :s
I kill MSN and pretty much everything except Fraps and Xfire whenever I go on it, and have to play it in 800x600 windowed with most of the effects turned off..
Rest of the system processes I set to run on Core 0 and I run Oblivion on Core 1
Unfortunately I've already done most of that... I think its because my graphics card isn't supported, so when I have a job, I'll be upgrading to a 6800 Ultra.
Your specs should run it ok But kill FRAPS, my game always slows down when I have it open.
Also, what video settings are you running it on? That'll be the most important thing, if you have everything maxed out then yeah, it wont run as smooth. The graphics card is 7300GS, so its AGP and should be high enough to run it ok. You said you'll upgrade to a 6800? Dont do that, stay in the 7000 range, I'd probably recommend a 7600GS if anything.
