I just managed to upgrade from an i7-9700 to a 7800x3d. What should I play?

I've got 32GB RAM and an RTX 3080 I'm borrowing long term. Normally I just play Rocket League, some Deadlock, and good single player games (ie not formulaic yearly-released).

Any recommendations?

Dwarf Fortress Classic, but let world Gen run with settings maxed to see if your PC will melt
- Beat me to it. Dwarf Fortress is always my first port of call when people seem to get mixed up with graphics, computing power, and gameplay.
  
  DF:C is really good for it too, will bring a top tier pc to it's knees with all the heavy math it wants done.
I think simulation or generally CPU intensive games benefit the most, for example Anno 1800 or BeamNG Drive
Civ 6 should perform quite well on your new CPU.

Also strong recommend for Satisfactory.
Nearly anything you want to
Crysis.
