Well, membars have already posted many & all of them which can tax your gfx card, but one more thing, U better buy a gamepad, or U won't be able to play PoP & Silent hill, or games like that, properly

oh and for BFME hope you hae enough RAM. I have 512 and it takes ages to load up. Secondly beware of game.dat crashes. It happens quite often. EA are working on a patch so till then save save save!

FARCRY i bet it will make your 6600GT cry when u install all the patches.
HALO is another game which can hit the card and check its endurance. ATi X800XT PE just gave 88 FPS in it while in quake 3 it gave above 420FPS.
well known Doom3.
Half Life2 is not stressing the GFX card but it does stresses ur CPU
