An X1900XT will give you 30+ fps in Oblivion under the game's "very high"
graphical setting with HDR + 2x AA. This is in outdoor environments with
lots of vegetation. Indoors, expect 60+ fps constantly.
A few notes:
1. Not sure if 1152x864 is actually available in the game, but there's
always 1024x768 or 1280x1024.
2. You'll need beta drivers to get AA and HDR simultaneously. Download it
