Metro Exodus PC Graphics Benchmark

1080Ti rocks at vanilla speed ,and in game experience is much better than the benchmark at 4k.
I love this game.

DX12 CRASHES, DX11 runs great, if crossfire would work well ,my 290x cfx is Itching for a go at it.

I got 40 more fps going from DX12 to DX11 using a 4790K and 980 Ti. Can't tell me the APIs run the same...
 
My 9 year old i7 980 xe @ 4.3 ghz still gpu bound at 3440x1440 at extreme settings with advanced physx hairworks and tesselation getting 60 fps with 1080ti ftw3.
This is the one title I'll have to revisit when raytracing hardware becomes more palpable.
is it really though ? I mean its a 9 years old CPU

I remember swearing by my 2500k when the 6700k came out because of the same reason. "My 2500k is GPU bound" blah blah blah.

I ended up upgrading anyways and the difference was actually pretty large. the "You have an I series it's fine" is one of the biggest myths in computer gaming. There is way more to it than just "What % of useage is this at?"

Ryzen 3000 cpu with x570 chipset is almost upon us the best time to upgrade hardware in diy market is this Black Friday holiday season with rumors of ram prices falling ssd prices falling AMD disrupting competition with cpu and gpu front as well. I'm hopefull the wait was over.
Fyi I played all my games x9 years on the maximum settings possible for past 2 years at 3440x1440 with gsync which helps with frame variance and before that 27 inch asus 3d vision 1080p 120hz monitor. The bump in resolution made my system more gpu bound as it should. I believe gamers should find the resolution that matches their hardware my 9 year cpu can still handle 3440x1440p
at 100hz. Once I upgrade I will make comparison videos Intel's best from 9.5 years ago at the time of upgrade vs AMD's best maybe disable some cores and make a direct clock to clock comparison just go crazy lol.

From what I can see Metro Exodus is GPU bottlenecked. Nothing, not even a 2080 ti can get the CPU close to 90% utilisation let alone 100%.

Also the benchmarking is a bit questionable compared to other tests I.e. guru3d testing.

On a i7-7700k (OC @ 5Ghz - AIO cooling) and a 1080 Ti (founders with evga AIO), I get 100% load on the GPU with avg FPS 60, lows of 52 (never exceeding 60c).

Though my game drive is a m.2 970 evo so that helps a lot (best performance upgrade bang for buck out there)

Overclocking the 1080 ti, gets me on avg an extra 3-4 fps increase. Eitherway the game is very playable at 4k with this setup.

I would say if you were averaging 48 fps then you've either got old drivers, unoptimised and definitely no overclocking).

I used to run everything at stock but I've realised if you've got good cooling then just bite the bullet. A conservative CPU overclock I.e. 4.8 ghz will give you noticeable changes in games and the Windows UI.
