il add in a new option (with a caveat): Mass effect

alhtough this would mean i would have to wait longer to upgrade my proc, the e6600.

i should be alright though.

lol I've played it on a 7600 GT. It ran great in the first chapters, but in some (I think in the 5 new ones) it ran like crap. But I think you should be fine playing it all on max.

Gears of War, I haven't finished it, but what I have played is great. I don't really like the aiming (seems like hitting the head or body is no different) but there is so much ammo that you can just blow through your ammo. Also the grenades are as good as useless to me.

fun game though.

that is a fine processor and the GPU is like the best out there. Mass Effect is a great game, and I change my mind, get that.

you might want to stick with UT2004 if you really want UT3. Gears sounds like a good choice and if you have $10, get Audiosurf off of Steam.

I would go with Mass Effect if you are into RPGs. It really matters what you prefer.

Sins of a Solar Empire - a bit of a stretch at $40? Not sure what would make you think that. It's a terrific game, and easily the best among the ones you mentioned.

Good purchase. On both counts. Sins of a Solar Empire more so than Bioshock, but can't go wrong with a $15 purchase!
