i'm going to assume low to medium, but you could get higher with low resolutions.

If the game is well optimized for PC you could get high on a low resolution, but with the current standard of hardware i doubt Beth will go all out on PC optimization.

Probably low anything higher depends on resolution and how well optimized the game is really.

Well the graphics card is a little bit stronger than what the PS3/Xbox 360 have but I think their main concern would be that single core CPU. It's anyone's guess I think.

Agreed, just i don't think Beth will go all out on optimizing Skyrim for PC considering how far advanced todays mid end gaming pc would be in comparison to a 360.

I just recently finished building my First pc and bought a few games, and noticed the graphics quality wasnt so good as i remembered on xbox360 such as bioshock. Deus Ex: HR doesnt look highly defined on on the highest resolution and on the best aa settings. Im wondering if getting things to look satistfieing on a pc is harder to do. I cant stand seeing this rough edges in small details, on the console I didnt see any rough edges at all, i dont understand, I thought that the PC would have better graphics or at least not less quality as any console. When Skyrim comes out and I see questionable quality, Im not going to happy. Please enlighten me, anyone....

specs:
AMD HD 6870
AMD Phenom II 4x 3.4ghz
8gb of ripjaws X ram
