you mean most demanding game? Or what game is the most playable on a bad machine?
I'm confused as to what your question is.

U can try CoD2 with 8x AA and 16 AF and a high res...

Pretty much any game with good looks.
Try CS:S on HDR full on de_dust or some map with HDR and highest res possible

Also u can use Tom's Hardware's benchmarks for some games to compare =)

High Dynamic Range. Makes the game EXTREMELY good looking.

HDR Image
No HDR Image


I would also try Company of Heroes. If U set it up right U can see a near-realistic combat.
