ATI versus NVIDIA: Metro 2033

Metro 2033

2033. Horrible Post-Apocalyptic world of 40000 people. They have been living in the metro of a big ex-USSR city Moscow, for 20 terrible years. Nuclear war destroyed their homeland. These people are the last representatives of mankind - the human cycle of evolution nears its end, new species (very ugly) appear on the surface of the Earth and deep inside the metro.

Metro 2033 supports a number of advanced DX11 features with the latest generation of DX11 graphics cards. Users with DX11 cards will experience advanced Depth of Field effects as well as Full Tessellation on character models, revealed THQ.

Now we measure in DX11 mode only, it's a choice we made. Above some performance numbers based on the different image quality settings. The card has a rough time, but that goes for any graphics card really. AAA is enabled as well.

Metro is again a title that scales really well with NVIDIA GPU setups in SLI.  We get roughly a 1.9x gain in performance.
