Answer 1

For a new(ish) PC I would imagine that you would be OK but compare the game requirements to your PCs hardware to find your answer :)

Recommended:

* 3 Ghz Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent processor
* 1 GB System RAM
* ATI X800 series, NVIDIA GeForce 6800 series, or higher video card

Minimum System Requirements:

* Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows XP 64-bit
* 512MB System RAM
* 2 Ghz Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent processor
* 128MB Direct3D compatible video card
* and DirectX 9.0 compatible driver;
* 8x DVD-ROM drive
* 4.6 GB free hard disk space
* DirectX 9.0c (included)
* DirectX 8.1 compatible sound card
* Keyboard, Mouse

Answer 2

This isn't nearly enough information to make an informed answer on your question, we need tech specs. First you need to look at you box and see if it has dedicated VRAM such as a Geforce card or ATI if you computer says you have integrated graphics your probably boned this woiud be determined if in the tech specs you see something along the lines of Intel Graphics Accelorater 950, or 945. Second of all you need to have enough available system ram, wutever the game requires is what you need and more would be helpful. Just because your computer is new doesn't mean it will play the newest games. Elder Scrolls was infamous for graphics and system needs, especially ram and even some top of the line cards when it first came out had trouble with it. Sometimes you can tune down the games graphics and output resolution and get it to squeek by but nowadays most prebuilt computers are little more then internet appliances.

Answer 3

You need to provide the hardware that comprises your PC.

Type of processor won't play a major role in game performance.

Have at least 1Gb of RAM, but preferably 2.

It's mostly dependant upon your graphics card.

Any ATi graphics card series X1900XT should barely run the game.

On Nvidia's side (graphics chip as well), the equivalent would be about a 7900GT.

I would recommend at least an 8800GTS 320MB or a 2900XT

Click on the source, it'll give you a run down of how well the graphics chips can run Oblivion: The Elder Scrolls 4.

Choose two graphics cards to highlight your comparison amongst the confusion of bar graphs. Obviously Red bars = ATi cards and Green bar = Nvidia cards.

Anything else? Email or message me.

Lenovo laptops have been initially for enterprise environments, like a artwork computing gadget, so they're prteey good, plus, its by means of IBM, and that they have got some great effective properties too. HP is a lot extra effectual than Dell by means of a techniques. Macs are the terrific ordinary-maximum sturdy and maximum lasting (mine went 6 years with each and all of the unique areas, yet I could replace the frustrating force now (its the older equivalent of the 17" macbook professional (the PowerBook G4 17")))

Answer 5

You need to give us some specs. MOST computers made in the last 2 months will likely be able to play Oblivion, but that's not to say that ALL of them will, and even if you can play, there's a possibility that it will run very slowly and you will have to lower quality settings

Answer 6

Need more information then that, I mean the specs. Whats the Cpu speed? How much Ram? Compare that machines specs with the system requirements of the game here: http://www.galbadiax.com/oblivion/system-requirements.php

Answer 7

It depends on the computer. If you have less then 1 GB RAM and an outdated graphics card, then it probably won't even start. You could try and download Oldblivion, which makes the game easier to run for your computer.

Answer 8

Well, labtops aren't very good at supporting games. the battery won't last very long playing Oblivion and Labtop graphics aren't really the best. They only a few expensive labtops like Dell XPS's can really support games. sorry
