Game recommendations for GTX 1080?

Carsomyr · Mar 21, 2017

Hey guys. I just upgraded my whole kit (including a gtx 1080). I intend to game at 1440p

Do you guys have any game titles to recommend?

I'm looking for stunning graphics. I want to enjoy this high end machine

Pretty much any AAA game will be stunning, so what kind do you like?
What about modded Skyrim hear it's got gobs' of graphic stuff, water trees ect.
Some of the new shooters Id love to get a killer space Game with planets but not really no mans sky
EDIT here you go 14 games that will punish Graphic cards

BF1, Crysis 3, Metro 2033/Last Light, GTA 5, Tomb Raider + the new one as well - just a few out of my head.

The Witcher 3 will look great! Dishonored 2. Not quite AAA, but gloriously beautiful if you want to use your brain to figure out huge puzzles: The Talos Principle.

Everything mentioned above plus The Division maybe.

If you like survival and esploration Subnautica XD looks great in 4k so would be the same at 1440p.
Metal Gear Solid 5 the same + all the games mentioned above XD.
