3127 MHz sustained core clock, +2000 memory. +325 core, +350 runs stable in other games but makes Oblivion stutter like crazy.

Specs:
9800X3D (PBO on with mobo limits and CO -30)
Asus ROG Strix B850-I Gaming WIFI
Inno3D RTX 5080 X3 OC
Custom loop with Alphacool core block for GPU and Alphacool Apex 1 for CPU + 2x240mm radiators.

Btw, what is Oblivion doing to make my CPU temps spike that high??? Cinebench maxes out my CPU at ~75C.

    I found the same results on my end, 5080 astral, oddly enough, the new nvidia hot fix drivers stabled things out.

    I did find something interesting though, leaving your ram core clock default, stabilizes higher core clock speeds, 3,200 MHz+

    Oblivion does shader caching more often than people realize. It only shows the loading bar for the initial one but it will often do shader work when you load the game.

    If you monitor your CPU usage when you launch it you’ll notice that it occasionally runs 99% utilization for 2-3 minutes when it starts. You have to just sit at the main menu until it’s done or the game will run like shit.

    Once your utilization drops to 10-15% you’re good to go.

    Upvoted for sharing the actual clock speed and not just an offset 🙂
