Just played Oblivion for 2h at 870MHz core on my 3870.

[dennilfloss]

1920x1200 with lots of detail maxed and tons of extra textures. Both indoors and outdoors. The occasional stuttering I experienced outdoors with my 1900-XTX is now gone. I'm probably CPU-limited by my X2 4200+ at 2.2GHz (can do 2.7 but I don't feel the need) but the game runs smooth and seems to have more vibrant colours somehow. Even the AA seems better.

Temp was 63C.

ATI Autotune told me I'd be stable at 975MHz core but Oblivion lasted mere seconds at that speed. Maybe the sweet spot is above 870MHz but I'm not sure if I want to push for more than a 100MHz overclock on the core.

Haven't moved the memory from its default 1200MHz speed. Core default on my model is 820MHz BTW.

So far I love this card.

I remember a while ago when I purchased my then new Geforce 8800GTS 640MB. I never thought I'd be able to play Oblivion at 2560x1600 resolution smoothly, at least not that soon. Before that, it took quad SLI to run that game smoothly at 2560x1600 resolution. Amazing how fast technology moves.

Yeah, Oblivion used to be the Machine Breaker in terms of benchmarking.
today it is merely another game. Crysis took over as the machine breaker.

you can search for an article from 2006 about Oblivion performance on AT. i remember the final conclusion: "It takes a dual GPU card (X1900XTX) to get a playable framrate in an outdoor scene".
but i think they ran it on an X2 CPU or something, it was before C2D.

personally, i think we should do away with all DX9 benchmarking. if one card gets 378FPS in Doom 3, and the other gets 359FPS, the second card isnt necessarily worse than the first.
sites should pick out a game or two to represent DX9 gaming, and becnhmark only DX10 games.

You are more then likely CPU bound since I was running a 4600+ with my GTX and I was for sure bound. I have been toying around in my head about going Xfire with 2 3870's but I have a feeling its not the brightest thing to do.

 

[dennilfloss]

Probably gonna upgrade the cpu/mobo/ram in the spring if my tax return is big enough.

According to the Nvidia fans, this is an impossibility. How can this be if the card sucks and is so slow.

I'm just being a little sarcastic, I agree with what you have said. I think the card has a built in limit to how far you can overclock though, unless you use a bios hack.

I haven't heard anybody say that this card sucks or is slow, just that it's slower than the 8800GT and is priced accordingly.

I am surprised though to hear that Oblivion is playing so well at that resolution. What are your other settings dennilfloss (specular dist, trees/grass, shadows, aa, etc)? I run it at 1280x1024 on an OC'd 8800 GTS-640 with a 2.6ghz X2 and sometimes it's very choppy outside. It might not be a fair comparison though, because my game is modded like crazy (including Qarl's texture pack, which is a resource hog). I need to try to craigslist my card and get a 8800GT-512 and see what kind of difference it makes.

I find it is more choppy in Ruins than outside (Probably because I am more likely to turn quickly in those tight spaces) There is one spot where it always chops for me outside, and that is the docks in Imperial City. The first time I turn after a quick travel, it chops something fierce, but after that it stops.

 

[GundamSonicZeroX]

Wow, I can't wait to get a GeForce 8800GT. Does anyone know of an Oblivion demo?

 

[tvdang7]

u need the bios to unlock the beast in your card

[dreddfunk]

I'm sure that everyone's definition of 'choppy' is different.

I'm running Oblivion at 1920x1200, with all of the sliders maxed, everything turned on except self-shadows, but with shadow-filtering set to 'low'.

Without AA, my fps run in the 45-60 range (with vsync enabled). With 2xAA, fps drop to around 35-45 (sometimes lower). With 4xAA, my fps seemed to be between 30-40 most of the time.

I did encounter a strange problem with invisibility as it relates to one quest (Aleswell), that consistently dropped my fps into single digits anytime an invisible character was in my FOV.

Oblivion isn't a hardware-killer anymore, but it sure isn't easy on hardware either.

P.S. All the fps are from memory (I'm at work), so you'll have to forgive me if I'm a little off. I'll check when I get home.

 

[dennilfloss]

My card has a special bios and it's already unlocked. I'm playing back at its default 820/1200 now. Seems fast enough but at least I know I can get a little more if needed (might go Crossfire this spring).

Wow. Having spent a ton of time playing oblivion and testing out many mods, you definitely leave me in the dust. I have like 10 active mods, which pales in comparison to your however many.

Sounds like you have a *highly* tuned oblivion experience - did you learn all of this specifically for this game, or are you into programming or something? I would love to play it on your PC to see what all I'm missing.

 

[Quiksilver]

Why don't you bump the Core Clock up to 835Mhz? Sames that was their original core coverclock that the card was supposed to sell with but amd asked them to lower it back down, its why you have the unlocked BIOS now.

 

[dennilfloss]

That logic is inescapable. Done@840MHz!

m1ldslide1,

I bought the game when it came out and it sat on my shelf for over a year while I read tweak guides and waited for the mods to accumulate. Started playing it only a couple of months ago. I have many more quest and dungeon mods that I haven't installed yet. I also sold the Amulet of Kings because I don't care about the main quest at this moment. I prefer to just explore, kill and loot. :evil: One day I'll buy it back, take it to Weynon Priory and do that main quest.:laugh:
