A Dell XPS-121M, which, if you don't know comes with...

Intel core i7 920, a 750GB HDD, DvD-RW, ATI-Radeon 4850 with 512mb, and a 6GB TriChannel DDR3-1067 memory.

I came home from school and did the usual, grabbed a Root-Beer, put my backpack down in my room and noticed that on my screen instead of the XP I was used to I saw Vista. I asked my dad if he got me Vista with the reply of a yes, and he then added, I also got you a new mouse and keyboard. I noticed then that I had gotten a new computer entirely. I screamed with joy.

For months now my old computer had been shutting down restarting and yelling at me "I RECOVERED FROM A SERIOUS ERROR BE PROUD OF ME!" Now I definitely wasn't proud because it kept doing this. My distress calls usually consisted of "Dammit! You piece of!" But then I would refrain myself when realizing my whole house could hear me. We tried a multitude of things, clearing off the whole computer (minus windows) which didn't work, clearing off everything including windows didn't work. So finally my dad surprised me with this amazing computer. Even though it was a surprise I still have to pay for 400 dollars of it. (NBD because I am in love)

But now I am extremely happy and I am wondering what games I should get for this amazing beast of a computer, I already have Crysis so any other games suggested I would love to know about.

I'm looking forward to Empire :Total War, which will be out soon, perhaps you could look into that :)

Get The Witcher: Enhanced Edition, because Yahtzee was completely and utterly wrong about that game. If you're worried, get the demo, and keep in mind that along with a whole slew of other improvements, the loading times are going to be much, much shorter in the Enhanced Edition.

RAM comes in three channels now? :p

Yeah, that's a pretty hardcore system. You're set for a long time. I've got a system a few steps below that, and I'm in the same boat you are: "Okay, I've got Crysis... erm, what else half-way uses this nifty system of mine?"

Assassin's Creed and Lost Planet are good to push your hardware a bit. Lost Planet in particular is a game built for those who have the system to run it.

If you want something PC exclusive, hmm... well, there's Warhammer Online, but it doesn't try to push the hardware that much. Age of Conan might be a good pick[, although it's not a PC exclusive]. (Come of think of it, I haven't played Age of Conan since the upgrade -- I should really consider that.)

Thanks guys! I'll probably look into all of these! I am extremely excited. I have no idea how I earned it....but I am so grateful.

Orange Box it up!
Although you should have that already I had to say it.
Don't forget your L4D
and that Starcraft 3 is releasing in the next year or two

Bioshock, and turn all the settings to high. It looks lovely.
