Just got a new graphics card for my pc and I want to find something that will push my computer hard. I have Doom3 maxed out on graphic details, still getting 60fps. Any ideas on a game?

FarCry, Aquanox, Half-Life 2 (when or if it is ever released)

far cry with the 3.o shader models. If you want a multiplayer game that is fun and popular you can not beat ut 2k4 right now.

If you are looking for something other than a first person shooting. Star wars: galaxies destroys good systems, it is more intense than doom 3 as far as resource use.

Definitely get The Sims 2. That game needs a good graphics card, but I think already suggested that to you.

Well, what games do you already have and what kind of games are you most interested in?

If you've already done the whole Doom-thing, I'm guessing you've done Quick, too. If not, a lot of game crazy friends of mine get addicted to it and adore it almost to their death. What I like about it is that you can play by yourself, friends, or random strangers you meet over the web. At least I'm pretty sure that's Quick.

I don't know, maybe Qick is short for something. All I do know is that some friends of mine would actually quit functioning as human beings for days at a time to play this game.

That's all I got, though.
