Recommend some good games for my system.

[New user]

I have a Dell E521 system with an Athlon x2 3800+ 1 gig DDR2 and am using the onboard Nforce 6150 LE video. I like turn based RPG, Racing games and First Person Shooters. I do not plan on upgrading anything in this system. What games would you recommend that would run good on this setup. I am quite happy with playing games in 1024x768 or 800x600 in low or medium detail.

Minesweeper ?

just kidding man! Welcome to the forums.
As far as FPS go ...you will be limited by your video capabilities.
If you like getting online MMO you might check out GuildWars - Prophecies , Factions, Nightfall....all three are out now , the first and last are very good.

I am currently playing morrowind on this system. I am considering getting COD 2 since the demo ran well in a lower DX mode and still looked decent.

Get Oblivion if you like Morrowind. If it runs crappy there is a kind of patch you can get that will dumb down the graphics and make it run better on lesser hardware.

Half Life 2 is a must.

I wouldnt recommend FEAR, although a lot of other people would, but you might like it.
Far Cry is good.

Both Knights of the Old Republic are good turn based RPG's.

Unreal Tournament 2004.

Check out some of the older D&D-based games (Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Nights, etc etc). THey may be old, and many not exactly be turn-based, but I'm sure you'll love playing them anyway.

Fallout 1-2 and Jagged Alliance 2 are turn-based classics, also consider Baldur's Gate 1-2, Planescape: Torment.
