Metro Last Light
“Metro: Last Light (formerly Metro 2034) is a first-person shooter and horror video game developed by Ukrainian studio 4A Games and published by Deep Silver for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It was released in May 2013. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world and features a mixture of action-oriented and stealth gameplay. The game exists in the universe of the novel, Metro 2033, and its sequels, written by Russian author, Dmitry Glukhovsky, but does not follow any direct storylines from the books. Metro:Last Light takes place one year after the events of Metro 2033, proceeding from the canonical ending from the novel, ending where Artyom chose to call down the missile strike on the Dark Ones.Metro: Last Light features technology which boasts of lighting effects and improved physics claimed to set a new graphical benchmark on the PC and consoles.” From Wikipedia.org
Metro Last Light seems to be the most clock speed-sensitive game of the bunch revealing a rather large jump in performance. The Metro Last Light benchmark is also quite long so the absence of thermal throttling probably plays a part too.
Coming from a EVGA GeForce GTX 670 would be a really nice upgrade, looking at the GTX 770 witch is noting more then a GTX 680 and the GTX 980, the numbers are pretty high. Especially when playing on Quad HD. Then again the 20nm is just around the corner, I’ll wait a little longer because all the games I have here should play just fine at Max settings, and running two of these in SLI should hold you over a good three years.
