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?

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

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

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.

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.

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