Testing FPS in Oblivion

[PICBoy]

Hi. I know that I must use a program called FRAPS for that, but where can I get a savegame where the gpu suffers the most for testing purposes?

I think here on AT they just started up a game and tried to so the exact same movements each and every time (manual control).
If you had to be exact, you would need a lot more than just a save game, you would need a script that executed movements for the player.
I would suggest you use the contruction set and make your own. I dont know of any other way.

EDIT:
As far as stress testing goes, do like AT did and walk around an Oblivion Gate with a bunch of different monsters running around it.
Actually, towards the end of the game is a scene just like that. You have to take a variety of soldiers and defend a town against an influx of monsters. That really killed my system, even when I took the details down.

What kind of a system do you have? I just got 8800GTS640 and im wondering what kind of FPS should i be expecting.

Do sever of them.
Like run around the circle thing in the Imperial City like 10x. Repeat 3x then average the results.

For an outside a city benchmark, find someplace were you can do a loop or something or walk the same path. Repeat, then average the results.

I don't there really is a spot thats really stressful. Any area outside a city would be pretty stressful after the settings get cranked up.
And there's no built in benchmark option too (which sucks).
