The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

The game loses much of its visual appeal without HDR. Although some gamers argue that point, we think TES IV looks best with enabled FP HDR and test it in this mode.

The Sparkle GeForce 8800 GT 256MB is but slightly inferior to the Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT 512MB and copes well with the task of ensuring comfortable performance even at 1920x1200. Still, we think the ATI Radeon HD 3870 looks preferable as it doesn’t feel a lack of graphics memory in some other games.
