Hi

Just wondering if the XFX Nvidia GeForce 8600GT would be able to run Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion at medium to high settings?

If so where can I get one cheap?

Thanks

You'll definitly be able to run Oblivion with that. Maybe not maximum everything but it'll dininitly be playable seeing as how I could run it on medium with a Geforce 7900. Go check out the 8600's on Newegg.com. They're almost always the cheapest way to go.

i used to max out oblivion on 1280x1024 with a d2.8, 8600gt, 4gb ram, so you shouldn't have any problems with it either. as for where you can get one cheap, try newegg.com.

At 1024x768, sure, you should manage medium-high settings.

But I wouldn't buy that card. Firstly, the 9500GT is mostly the same card, performing a frame or two higher at most, and costs less. Secondly, you can get the 9600GSO for just a smidge more than the 9500GT, making it by far the better deal.

I played the crappy game with an 8600, and it ran at high settings very well.
