The Oblivion graphics engine can be very taxing for even the fastest hardware once you increase the level of detail. There is also a difference in performance compared running outside, in city area or inside a dungeon, the outside is most taxing for the graphics card, the town area is noticeably easier on the GPU while the dungeon is usually less taxing of all. We tested the heaviest environment with HDR enabled and in-game settings maxed out.

As being a high-end product, Gainwards card once again took the lead. Overall it outperforms the high mainstream 8800GTS 512MB only a tiny bit, looking at the minimum frame rate you can consider both card being evenly fast. Oblivion does love the extra performance though; compared to the other mainstream video cards the new GTX has a comfortable lead.
