I just built a new mid/high end system and want to play something that will push it a bit. What games would you reccomend?

Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal are extremely well optimized as far as modern games go. Even in 4K with maxed out settings, they won't really push a mid range GPU unless you have a 4K 120Hz monitor.

Yeah but on a high end computer they will look absolutely sick

Extremely heavily modded Minecraft, if it's running well then it's not modded enough I don't care how high end it is

Also VR games, but sadly there aren't enough good new releases and it's a pain to get it to work on linux so I haven't tried of late

Skyrim with a lot of mods. That's what I have been playing a lot recently, and I have a somewhat mid/high end system. It's a HP Omen 17-ck1000, A gaming laptop. i7-12700h, RTX 3060, 32gb ram.

7 Days To Die is a fantastic game - if you like that sort of thing. You can usually get it cheap during the sales. It will definitely "stress" your system.

This is a super fun game solo or with friends.

Mortal Online 2 is sandbox MMORPG that is amazing and looks great for a MMO.

Satisfactory, Microsoft Flight Sim, Farming Sim, trucking sims, modded Minecraft, Cities Skylines. Don't know any games that stress CPU much

A large stelarris map at max speed pushes the cpu quite a bit. Doesn't really use the gpu though.

Everspace 2 is cool and looks great.
