I've posted this before but it bears re-posting for anyone who gets a new rig.  :)

Nice rig, Windi - now enjoy all the fun of setting it up and re-installing everything. That should keep you outta mischief for a while ;)

World of Tanks....  then see what Steam has available. I have had to take a pass on some great games because my current rig was just not up to snuff.

Ideas? Fallen Enchantress?

Skyrim, not only a great game but it looks great to with the graphics cranked up.  And yes FE is a good choice.
