So, yeah... today I went out and said to myself "Hey, if my computer could run Quake IV fine, I bet it could run Oblivion pretty fine." and bought oblivion. I set everything onto low, since I want to experience the gameplay and not the graphics.

Then came problem. It's LAGGY. I can't belive the frames per second are so freakingly low. Any ideas on speeding up the game?

You could check on the oblivion link here to boost performance...

Oblivion link

or u could download the latest drivers for your graphic card

hmm y not check the oblivion thread.... i remember u need to dl some patch to lower the game's performance or something like dat......

try lowering resolution and switch off anti-aliasing(if you have it on) i dont play oblivion, but i know most games like oblivion have some weird unecassary bloom effect which is sometimes enabled.Check if that can be turned off.Or just set everything to low, which is the most obvious way
