I would like to know the answer as well. I just spent a pretty penny on the best gaming laptop I could find and I want to give this sucker a run for its money. So far, every game I've played on Steam has easily maxed the specs. I've done most of my gaming on my 360 or PS3 as of late, but I'd like to know what is the new Crysis, Morrowind.... i.e. the game that makes EVERYONE upgrade their system?

Planetside 2 if you get into a huge fight. Lots of stuff goes on nearby, and that can tax a high-end computer.

The most? Probably Crysis3. Some games have silly settings that'll beat down your computer(the witcher 2), or are just so poorly optimized(gta4).

this if you get the enclave and AOD to zerg you guys while you're fighting goonsquad or some other crappy NC outfits, your pc will exhibit signs of tear-sheddery

For me, the most pc-shattering thing i've thrown at my system was a heavily modded skyrim

ArmA 3 Alpha...without a doubt, the most taxing game I've ever played.

Crysis 3 I'd wager is up there too.

You could also set off like 1000 dynamite in Minecraft, that slows down everything lol

crysis 3 for the most on your GPU and Planetside 2 or something like starcraft 2 to stress your cpu. I think Metro 2033 still to this day is pretty ruff  on cards.

Crysis 3 maxed out, Witcher 2 maxed out with uber sampling turned on, and maybe Metro 2033 maxed out.

What others have said, Crysis 3, Witcher 2. May I ask why didn't you spend more on the GPU? Doesn't seem like a balanced PC.

That's what I was thinking. I saw "i7" and assumed that'd be paired with a 660 at the very least.

Why such a weak GPU? should have gotten a weaker CPU and a better GPU.

FSX with as much AI traffic as you can install as well as environmental mods. Then fly into the New York area on a cloudy day.

It really only lagged on my computer after the second to last patch. Now, everything runs fine. Back on topic, Crysis 3 maybe, and Tomb Raider I think could also make your computer lag.
