we still don't know what type of hardware will be required to run Oblivion smoothly on a PC but it's probably a fact that a lot of people right now are concerned about that their system might be too slow or lack certain other requirements.
What I thought is that anyone who wants to get some advices could post some informations about his system in this thread - only the main hardware-components, please - and then we could try to help that person with deciding what components need an upgrade - or if a completely new system is needed  -------------------- "One day before Oblivion is released, you'd better buy the best hardware components available for money..." - Todd Howard

I don't have the luxury of sraying at home too long, as I'm always on business trips, but think that Oblivion will own...
Just got 3G laptop the other day, it has the following specs P4 3.2 1024 DDR RAM Radeon 9700 128mb craohics card 80GB harddrive. I know it isn't smoking, but it's a laptop. All I want to know is will it run Oblivion at lower settings. NB: A laptop is the only feasable option for me, so desktop and 360 are out of the question for now  |
