i'll read you the box:

minimum specs: windows XP, 512MB system RAM, 2 ghz pentium 4 or equivalent processor, 128MB direct3d compatible video card and directx 9.0 compatible driver (availible for download though card manufacturers site usually) i know my video card is way below specs (radeon 300 or something
) and it works great on medium texturing

yeah, and a card can be Nvidia GeForce 7800GTX.
It's better i think, but it's more expensive.

Don't worry about not having a godly computer. I have the biggest piece of junk you can get..

AMD Athlon XP 2500+
SOYO KT600
1.5 GB Corsair RAM
Audigy 2 ZS
Radeon 9800 256 MB

And I run oblivion fine, it doesnt look as pretty as it would on a 1000 dollar computer, but it still is pleasing to the eyes. Has its lag moments, but still doesn't make you go "UGH THIS RUNS SLOW" or anything.

I've found that the 700 and above range is neccessary on the video cards .. I have in the Geforce 600 range and I really get too much lag to play well.
