I just got a new computer! And it runs
WINDOWS!
Whenever I would browse the internet looking at games on my mac, I'd see a ton of awesome ones, but not be able to play them! And I would always be like "Man, when I get a PC, I'm gonna have the biggest library of amazing games ever!"
But of course, as soon as I get windows 7, my mind draws a blank. So I was wondering, what are some good games that I should get now that I have a Windows?
Free, not free, indie, AAA. Doesn't matter, I'd just appreciate some links and ideas to open my mind up to all of the new possibilites!

Stealth games:
Thief: Gold,
Thief: The Metal Age (Thief 2)
Platformers:
Spelunky
Horror:
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth
All I can think of off the top of my head.
All of them are available on Steam, CoC, and Thief (1 & 2) are probably also available on GoG, and spelunky is up for free download a google search away.

And +1 for the
remade version of Spelunky.

You know, Vapor is a parody of Steam, which actually exists. But I recommend Spelunky, Don't Starve, TF2, Dragon Commander.

Well I'm not too used to Windows yet, and I pretty much know nothing about computers, but I learned how to get this information from google:

DXDiag gives better info. Also, your screenshot didn't listed your GPUs in.
Anyway, that's some massive computer you got there. I bet it's, like, five times the power of an average modern Mac, and for about ¼ less money.

O.M.F.G. You have 32GB of RAM AND an i7 processor?! Jesus Christ, what's your Graphics Card? And how much did this beast cost you?

it would likely run even faster with small OS's like linux mint.
