I was getting screenshots of oblivion at the max my system can support, (Running 3 FPS on highest). And I turn music off to try and save CPU power. And wow, the game feels so much more real without music. Go into a forest, any forest, make sure its daytime, and turn the music off. Its awesome. Make sure you have a decent tree distance, and tree canopy shadows make it a lot better looking too.

It makes the game feel real in its own way, even if you do have a cruddy computer. It even looks good on no distant LOD. (For about an hour, then the constant fog gets annoying)

Music does cause some lag, like one of the solutions that gets rid of some battle lag is renaming battle music folder, so it never changes. And yes it does make a small difference. Just try without music and see if you get a performance boost
