[lug] Good tests of nVidia card?

[Matt Thompson]

I recently got an upgrade of my work box and have been spending time
doing all the usual fun things when that happens.  Recompiling programs,
migrating home-items, etc.

But, with this new box I go from an 8 MB Rage64 video card to a 256 MB
nVidia 6800.  Thus, I don't really have much that I can use to test out
the new card.  I have some OpenGL apps that I use in the chemistry work,
but the molecules I work with aren't too taxing for the program it
seems.

So, I was hoping the list could give me some ideas on how to test out
the all the new power I should have.  I know of things like America's
Army, but downloading 800 MB of game for a work box isn't the best use
of time.  Are there any smaller, video-intensive games I could grab to
test the limits of the card?  You know, all those cool anti-aliasing,
shadows, mip-map type things I always read about at Anandtech, but never
had the hardware to try?
