Guru3D - Metro Exodus PC Performance Review

Anyone here playing this with AMD GPU ? Can you try enabling Advanced Physx and see if the effect is there when shooting a wall etc

I seen a video RX VEGA 64 and performance looks really good but the video didn't show any physx. So I not sure if this is using CPU Physx on AMD or it just doesn't enable at all.

Debri and Smoke seems to be affected by Physx

I think all physx is the software now. The hardware one never really took off.

Of course, the 1080 is a great card.

That's good. Because I was contemplating a 2080 as an upgrade. Even one of my mates was trying to convince me that a 2080ti would be a better upgrade than a 2080.

From benchmarks it looked like the 1080 would struggle at 1440p at Ultra. (One down from extreme)

DLSS looks much better now, at least for textures & background detail, etc.

Still issues with particle effects and the like (https://imgur.com/a/45uUKrv), though I think that's going to be harder to improve. Not unlike how certain bloom effects/lighting were dimmed a lot with DLSS on in FFXV.
 
They didn't test 4k ray tracing on dlss vs 1800p ray tracing on dlss off

This is the scenario I face when deciding how to play the game and using DLSS on produces a significant better framerate

2 weeks Nvidia came out and said DLSS needs a fair bit of time to do it's calculation - essentially what it means is DLSS is only better than render scaling when the game runs under 60fps. This is why I see a big performance jump - but in HU's test they used settings where the game runs at 60-80fps and then tried DLSS on top of it, unfortunately DLSS doesn't work when the game is running so well already

Nvidia is going to need to take a look at it's drivers - what they need to do is have an auto on/off function where DLSS turns on ONLY when the game is under 60fps and turns OFF when the game is above 60fps - this would provide the best performance and best image quality in each scenario where the game needs it and can afford it
