I have more than enough RAM, but my processor is a 1.8 Ghz Dual Core. And im running on Vista. Think I could still manage?
All Ghz are not created equal, the core duo chipset's GHZ is much more powerful than the ghz originally rated for Oblivion. Plus, you basically have 2 of em.

So yea, your processor is plenty powerful, it comes down to what Test-0 said, your video card.
