Both those games will push your card. Witcher maxed (graphics and difficulty) was pretty challenging... and i dint ever bother to try hardcore mode lol. Bioshock is def worth a play through, great story and game play; haven't had time to get through 2 though... I've found that GW2 takes a bit of ooph as well, more CPU limited than gpu... but beautiful game none-the-less.

If you want tactics, try the Total War series, although only the latest ones will look good. I'm a huge Dark Souls fan, I strongly recommend trying it out, just make sure to look up all the mods. The pc port was released with horrible textures and a 30 fps cap but someone has been releasing mods to fix all the issues and it should have pretty good graphics with them enabled. Maybe Portal 1 & 2? Just checked steam and the entire Total War series is on sale for $31. thumb.gif

Dont wait for dota2 invite, instead buy it for arround 7€ from a trader (google it)
2)
Get planetside 2 beta key (for free). Its kinda like scifi battlefield, but map is extremely huge and there is no player cap (its FPSMMO). Best way to get key is on planetside2 twitter.

If you want to buy a game that will test your rig (aka bring it to it's knees) you also could buy a cheaper PC, that will bring it on it's knees by some games, AND you save money wink.gif

Or try Minesweeper! It's tactical!

Serious now tongue.gif

Might give Anno 1404 Venice (don't like the succesor Anno 2070...) a try (it's sand-box style, but it's a nice game)
Try Company of Heroes (tactical) --> the 2nd comes out 2013

Not heavy games, but might just have fun...

If you like Metro atmosphere, try S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (I think it's quit te same atmosphere)

I have them both, but never played them a lot (as all of my 564168463168463515864 other games... smile.gif )

(I bought STALKER because it says: "Supported by ASUS" on the flash screen when the game starts hehe) --> Yes I am ASUSfreak wink.gif

EDIT: well it might be because it was installed on a ASUS laptop tongue.gif
