IMO the framedrops are due to Oblivion being multi-platform (PCs are technically different, although multi-core PCs have a lot more in common with the XBox 360's overall architecture than compared with the PS3, but many people still don't own multi-core PCs), if the game was build from the ground up for the XBox 360 or PS3 they could have pushed this game further for these consoles without any framedrops, like Resistance and Motorstorm have solid framerates throughout the entire game.
The most technically impressive PC games being newly released often require significant system upgrades. The advantage of game consoles is that you will have a large userbase with identical specs, so you can fully optimise for just one specific configuration. For example if I wanted to play Crysis on my PC to its full potential I would probably be spending more on the upgrade than it would to buy a new XBox 360 or PS3 console.
IMO the PS3 is fully capable of producing more impressive games than Crysis will be if built from the ground up, so I am not plannng on upgrading my PC any further.
