Metro: Last Light Gaming Benchmark
Metro: Last Light is a DX11 first-person shooter video game developed by Ukrainian studio 4A Games and published by Deep Silver released in May 2013. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world and features action-oriented gameplay. The game has a benchmark component to it that mimics game play. Scene D6 was used and an average of four runs was taken.
The settings used in the testing below are Very High for quality and a resolution of 2560×1440 and 1920×1080. DirectX 11 is used, texture filtering is set to AF 16X, motion blur is normal, SSA turned on and tessellation is set to high.
The Metro LL results show a slightly wider gap between the 780Ti and this overclocked beast. With that being said a 4-6 percent increase in average performance is hardly worth the extra 150 dollars. On the other hand the additional $50 over a stock GTX 780 is money well spent. In return for this minor amount you get a 16-17 percent improvement with an approximate increase of 2 frames per second on minimum frame performance. To put that another way, by saving $150 you only give up one or two frames per second over a 780Ti on the minimums and about the same on average performance levels. Any way you slice it that is awfully good performance from a GTX 780 card.
