Framerates are roughly twice what I had with my 2.33 Ghz MBP, but that was only a 128 MB GPU.
I usually play at 1280x800 wide screen.
Here's some movies of my characters I made in Oblivion:
Shwartzenegger:
YouTube - Ahhnold in Oblivion
Jatoya Jackson:
YouTube - Jatoya's World
Keanu Reeves
YouTube - Keanu Reeves for Oblivion
Dragon Firefight
YouTube - Oblivion fire fight

Some pics:

The framerate increase is due to the GPU/VRAM speed increase, not the VRAM quantity increase.

Whatever the reason I am getting roughly twice the framerate.

Loved the Ahhnold clip! Is this a character plugin for Oblivion?

Unfortunately no; I made the face by entering googled pics of Arnold's face into SI Facegen. But thanks for the comment. I may release him later though.
