FEAR	Source: Sierra

FEAR is Sierra's latest first person shooter which relies heavily on DirectX 9 features. With its "Soft Shadows" feature enabled, even the fastest videocards run at a crawl, FEAR is definitely the new benchmark for future FPS games to follow.

It's amazing how close the MSI NX7600GT-VT2D256E videocard and its Geforce 7600GT GPU perform compared to the nVidia GeForce 7800GT GPU - you can still find those cards online and they're about twice the price! Talk about value, the GeForce 7600GT is swimming in it.
