I'm looking for a game that can pushmy computer to it's limits!!!

Well before Crysis, it was SupCom.

Watch out for Far Cry 2 in October - that looks gorgeous.

Graphics:Crysis, Crysis: Warhead, World in Conflict, Company of Heroes

Overall: Supreme Commander, World in Conflict, and maybe Neverwinter Nights 2 (hard to see if it actually needs a lot of power because of it's performance issues caused by the patches that surprisingly "optimises" it and fixes bugs.)

The Witcher.Johnny_Rock

Come on, The Witcher is not that graphics intensive and its definately not realistic...still a good game though. I would say watch out for Far Cry 2, and World In conflict

It's very demanding on PC's hardware. And who said anything about realistic???

I'd suggest looking into World in Conflict. It's pretty much up there near Crysis in terms of the machine req's when all maxed out and it uses the graphics diffrently (the game is an RTS so it's the 3d representation of morder warfare as opposed to the FPS style of Crysis).

Oblivion can still be a fairly heavy game to run with all maxed out due to the massive outdoor areas.

I havent tried Clear Sky yet (not yet out in the US) but it sounds like that'll also be able to push things when run in DX10 with all the extras (should be out tomorrow).

Armed Assault (arma) definitly!GenTom

Can you give me some links to see some pics or vids.It has nice graphics and a good single player?

At 1680x1050, maxed out with 8xA, it is :P.(DX10)

i'm not sure i'm understanding correctly: are you saying that nwn2 patches fixes the performance issues? i'm asking because nwn2 currently has some serious framerate issues on my rig when maxed out (especially in outdoor environments with lots of npcs), and i haven't patched it up at all, so if the patches fix the performance issues, i need to install them!

I don't know how it will work out for you but personally I had no problems with it before the patches. Maxed out, 1680x1050, 8xAA and I had from 50 to 80 frames, most of the time around 65-70. After I patched it things started to gett interesting, now I have to play it at 1440x900 and 2xAA, to get around 45-55 frames and after 3 or 4 hours I need to exit the game and start it again because it goes under 30 frames.

+ something that I have never seen in my life, a patch actually removes graphical settings instead of adding them :|.

i guess i shouldn't patch it, in that case... :(

thanks for the info, man.

+ something that I have never seen in my life, a patch actually removes graphical settings instead of adding them .

This was the most surprising out of all. It removed some settings for the size of the textures.

And sorry for the 1440x1050 mistake :P I wanted to say 1440x900. It's 1 AM here .

I've never finished NWN 2. I recently started it again and I just arrived in Neverwinter and that's as far as I ever got, so I don't know much about it's bugs, but when I look at the patches and the bug fixes that are pages long :O, I can't help to wonder, better experience with a lower res and just 2xAA, or o possible full of bugs game with lots of problems.
