just had a close look at the charts and although the numbers seem about right i get much higher fps when in a dungeon then those stated, i get just under the 100 fps mark when inside dungeons, so i dont know how those figures came about. although the outside oblivion gate, coincides with what they have(it brings my system to its knees) and so do the outside in towns seem about right but indoors i get much higher than that.

it could be that ive tweaked my ini abit so it takes full use of my dual core, and one or two other settings are slightly lower like actor view and item fade.
