Ok will be getting my E6600 PC with 8800GTS card and would like some recommendations to test my PC.
Mainly RTS or FPS.
On my lappy was playing CS:source, Star Wars EAW, CoH's and Warhammer DoW series, Command and Conquer Generals.
Thanks.

CNC3 and stalker are the big 2 right now, got both, good games![]()
Aye but the point is msr wants something to stretch his machine's legs a little...
SO on that basis I'd recommend Supreme Commander or Company Of Heroes if you like RTS games, as these both chew processors for breakfast, especially on higher resolutions.
For FPSs I'd got either with STALKER (depends if you like your combat more along the lines of System Shock) or the venerable HL2, FEAR or Prey in nice high res modes.
Or, for a real change, try Battlefield 2142... but have a hunt around for a decent server that's not full of nobs...
FPS: I would recommend checking out Prey, Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay, FEAR and Rainbow 6: Vegas.
F.E.A.R
Battlefield 2
Doom 3
Half-Life series
Far Cry
Messiah. Not really an FPS but similar enough and lots of action.
Oh, and Hellgate: London, when it comes out, looks like it's going to be very good:

Just noticed no-one has mentioned Supreme Commander. Another great RTS, that will give your system a good kicking. Same goes for Company of Heroes too.
Old but by far the best RTS: Starcraft. Still the most popular one online too![]()
FEAR all the way !!![]()
