Oblivion

Oblivion – Direct3D

Oblivion Performance 1920x1200
Card	Min FPS	Max FPS
GeForce 8800 Ultra 3-Way SLI	60	73
GeForce 8800 Ultra 2-Way SLI	58	72
GeForce 8800 Ultra Single Card	30	45

Notes

We were pretty surprised by the 1920x1200 results with Oblivion under 3-Way SLI. At that resolution the cards didn’t seem to scale any better than the 2-Way config, and we noticed some tearing when scrolling through the Oblivion menus. Once we loaded up our saved game the tearing went away, but as soon as we went back to the menu, it came back. It was an odd issue that didn’t occur with single card or 2-Way SLI testing, and it may have affected our results at 1920x1200.
