Basically like the titles says.. got a new Q6600 and eVGA 8800GT and looking for something to show it off. Opinions on the most/best graphic intense game out there currently.
P5K-E LGA
Antec Nine Hundred 2* 7200.11 seagates
Vista 64 bit
EVGA GeForce 8800GT Superclocked 512MB 256-bit
CoD4 and Bioshock look decent. I've heard good things about STALKER as well.
Hmm... maybe Doom? Never played it, but it seems to use shadows pretty well.
Oh, if you can to scare people, get F.E.A.R. While it doesn't look fantastic, it looks good enough... especially when it starts getting into some really freaky horror-movie'esque scenes. I wouldn't use this to showcase graphics capabilities though. I still think Crysis w/ cranked effects is the best for that.
Single link DVI (DVI-I) maxes out at 1600x1200 (1920x1200 is achieved with reduced "blanking" signaling) Double link DVI (DVI-D) maxes out at 3200x2400 (3840x2400 can be achieved with reduced "blanking" signaling). For even bigger resolutions than 3840x2400, only analog signal can be used.
Visually, I don't believe there is a difference if you keep yourself within the resolutions defined above.

So if I am running for the desktop 1920x1200, not sure that I would want to figure the monitor being 24', I will want the resolution to be tighter. If I want to run 1920x1200, would I need a DVI (DVI-D) cable to in these mode. Just not sure what "(1920x1200 is achieved with reduced "blanking" signaling)" means.
It's not the blood that disturbs me, it's the weird little crab-walking girl and the things that keep popping out at me... lol. They also like to point you down a dim-lit corridor every once in a while... "You're like, I don't want to go down there... but there is no other way >_>. Then you'll get like half-way down and the lights will cut off. AHHHHHHHH!" I won't spoil what happens next.
well my new favourite game the witcher has to get a mention, nice gfx apart from the skies, not idea what they were doing there, if only they had the skies of oblivion*sigh*
Crysis by far, then Oblivion and UT3, of all the others COD4 is next,Q4, ETQW, BioShock and Doom3 is last but it's the oldest, the games last year just got better each time, didnt thinks GoW was that good, have not played FEAR or Witcher or HellGate
If you lets us know what type of game you like the most we might be able to tell you something that looks great and at the same time something you'll enjoy playing.
