i noticed Oblivion on the 360 is quite a nice looking game, and runs fairly
smoothly most of the time as well.

I want Oblivion for my PC, but i'll have to upgrade. What kind of
performance can i expect at max settings for this game on a system with an
E6600 Core 2 Duo and an X1900XT(512)? I'd like to run max settings(high
textures, HDR, etc), but i don't need rediculous resolutions. 1152x864 and 2
or 4x AA would be great. I'd like for it to look atleast as good as the 360
version, and hopefully with 30+ fps consistantly.

I'd also like for this to be able to run Crysis when the time comes, but i
realize i may have to get a DX10 card sometime next year in order to get
what i want out of the game.

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
