Metro 2033 is a first-person shooter game based in the Russian metro system. Metro 2033 is very similar to the much loved game STALKER as it is developed by the same programmers. The game utilises DirectX 11 and relies heavily on tessellation features and is considered to be one of the most graphics intense games on the market.
Metro is extremely intensive and it shows at 2560×1600 with a low framerate of 17FPS. At 1920×1080 and 1680×1050 however, we saw some strong numbers, pushing ahead of the 7770 and just behind the 7850.
Thanks
No fair. You always include photo’s of the packaging so why can’t we see photo’s of the bubble wrap & sellotape? It’s probably more interesting that the card.
great review, thanks, really helpful
take it im the only person who has problems with the card over heating ever 30 seconds
Sounds like an issue with the card being faulty. Is the fan spinning, operating at PWM? Is the heatsink attached properly, enough thermal paste? Does the system shut down after it overheats – could be power leakage which means its shutting down to prevent damage (power leakage causes overheating and shutdown).
