With that out of the way, let's see what has changed with Metro: Last Light Redux, both in terms of graphics as well as performance.
#How to show metro last light benchmark results drivers#
We've encountered instances in the past where drivers tended to target and fix issues with the most commonly benchmarked games, and while things are certainly better these days it's always good to look at empirical data showing how the various companies stack up.
In some cases we may see serious performance issues or rendering errors early on, and if/when that happens we may elect to revisit the performance of certain games a month or two after launch to see what has changed. AMD and NVIDIA are the two obvious participants, but with Intel continuing to increase the performance of their Processor Graphics solutions it's also important to see how they fare with new releases. It's worth noting that testing gaming performance at the time of launch may also tell an interesting story about the state of drivers from the various GPU companies. To be clear, we're not replacing our GPU reviews, but we hope to augment our other coverage with increased coverage of the recent gaming releases. But if you're in the market for a new GPU, you probably want to use if for playing games, which means seeing how new games perform on a selection of hardware is useful. Our GPU reviews do a good job of giving a broad overview of the performance from the latest graphics cards on a smaller subset of games, and it's basically impossible to test every new GPU on every game at the time of launch. S omething we've wanted to do more in the past is to provide smaller updates looking at the performance of recent game releases. Of course part of that stems from the use of super-sampling anti-aliasing at the highest quality settings, but even without SSAA Metro: Last Light can be a beast. We've been using Metro: Last Light as one of our gaming performance benchmarks almost since it first came out in May, 2013, and it's still one of the most demanding games around. Fundamentally, that means less for Metro: Last Light than it does for Metro 2033, but there are still some visual changes, and that potentially means performance changes as well. The games have both been remastered using the latest version of 4A Engine, with updates for the latest generation of console hardware among other things. The second image shows the same settings post patch.Last month 4A Games released updated versions of the two earlier games in the Metro series, Metro 2033 Redux and Metro: Last Light Redux.

UPDATE: 4A released some optimization for AMD users with the latest patch which improves performance. The video shows the benchmark tool in action, although capturing interferes quite excessively. Either way, the game is a bit of a beast as expected from 4A Studios, but it seems much like with Crysis 3, AMD users will have to wait for some new drivers to get better performance gains from the game. Turning SSAA on dramatically reduces performance to below an average of 30 frames per second.Īpparently, the game runs much better using Nvidia graphics cards as the game is optimized using PhysX. We’ve been using the Metro Last Light benchmark tool to get some results using an i5 setup with 8 GB Ram and a single HD 7970 GPU running the game on Very High, 4x AF, 1980x1020p resolutions, Tessellation on max (although the tool says it’s not supported) and SSAA off to get a reasonably steady average 39 frames per second, although there are many moments where it dips below this quite dramatically. Now that everyone can play Metro Last Light, much like its predecessor Metro 2033, the game is a bit of a beast even on higher end graphics cards.
