Well, Crysis... if you're into that kinda thing... I'll give you a list. They may not "Abuse it" but they look great and play great too

+Single Player

-Dead Space

-GTA IV

-Mass Effect

-Mass Effect 2

-Portal

-Half-Life 2 with expansions (as if you haven't already played them...)

-Street Fighter IV

-Metro 2033 (heard it's good, haven't played yet)

-Bioshock (Haven't played the s sequel yet)

+Multi-Player

-Team Fortress 2

-Battlefield: Bad Company 2

-Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 1 and 2

-Alien Swarm (free)

There are many others but I tried to get as modern as I could.

Lawlz, TF2 to can run on like a original GeForce 256. ;)

While you can definitely cut it back to DX8 and turn down all the extras to get it playable on anything, turn on all of the features (especially particles) and it makes i7 systems drop to nasty minimums.

Easily one of the worst optimized games in existence :p

How can you say that when Crysis exists? :D

OP, it was certainly a long journey picking out a good setup for you, but I'm glad you like it!

Over on the Steam TF2 forums we have a "But can it run TF2" meme.

I also think you have a great system aznium, definitely very capable.
