    recently I got a 256mb Geforce FX 5500

    now I want to really test it.

    Any good games out there that will really test my card?

    For one, i really don't care for FPS games, and i do not want to pay money every month to keep it up (if online), other than that, blow me away..

    Hmm..well if you want to test out your new card go and test it out on Doom 3, I know its a FPS game but the graphics and the requirements on the game is just sickening! I bet you'll have to bump some of graphics down a bit to play the game. Anyways, try it out on that game or try F.E.A.R.

    Well give it a try, I know I tried to run the game on my PC and it didn't come out to smooth. I even toned the graphics down a bit and it still ran slow, glad I didn't buy the game 'cause I would of been pissed at the game, my PC, and at myself.

    Btw, there are other games you can test it on but I know for a fact that Doom 3 requires a decent graphic card to run.

    Well this isn't a game, but it will test your system.

    http://gameadvisor.futuremark.com/gameadvisor/service/

    Must run in IE

    Click on "My Game Advisory" then start. It will test your system and how it compares to others. That site can also tell you how good it can run on a bunch of games. Just click on "Search" on the top, find a game, then "System Scan" And it'll tell you were you stand.
