Oblivion
The GTX 260 already had the advantage here, so the GTX 260 core 216 just extends the lead at every data point. Even at the highest resolution, Oblivion remains playable on all cards, as it is pretty resilient to lower frame rates.

I'm still holding on to my dual 8800GTX's. I am still surprised how competitive they are against all but the uber high end 280SLI's or 4way Xfire setups. At my native resolution of 1920x1080, they still tear everything up.PSMR - Tuesday, September 16, 2008 - link
What about system specs. or drivers that were used?Clauzii - Tuesday, September 16, 2008 - link

Ha, that was added after my comment. Wow, good reporting anandtech.BPB - Tuesday, September 16, 2008 - link
I would have liked to seen 4850 in Crossfire since I paid well under $300 for my 2 on sale, and $300 seems to be the price point this article goes after.
