Metro Last Light early benchmarks on gtx 670

[blackened23]

I'm going to have to have poohbear's back on the 1080p claim. I have a 680 and averaged better than those numbers at TPU are showing.

Well i'm afraid you'll just have to prove it to us then! Built in benchmark, go. Anyone who has played the game fully knows that it isn't "smooth" maxed out on nearly every single card sans the Titan? Maybe? So i'm going to call you both out on your hyperbole, upload screenshots of your benchmarks. MAXED OUT.

 

[poohbear]

Look pal. We all know you're exaggerating. I don't know what your deal is, but your definition of "flawless" must be so out of line with my definition of flawless, that it blows my mind right now. All I gotta say is: Prove it Built in benchmark. Screenshot. Go.



Did you just state that the game is a RPG? It has RPG elements but it is action to the core. I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, are you referring to the same game we are?

blackened23, calm down, and chill the hell out. We're talking about video games here, not politics or religion. The game plays smoothly FOR ME. I never even bothered to check FRAPS, maybe it is in the 30-40fps, but for this game it runs smooth without a hiccup. It's not BF3 wherein that might make it stutter, it plays smoothly and that's enough for me.

I don't need to PROVE anything, i'm stating my opinion that the game runs smoothly, and was surprised its not running smoothly for others. If you sit there with FRAPS on all the time and just focus on the numbers to match your predefined measure of smooth, then sure, u might percieve it as not smooth. but "proving" things to you is about as important to me as picking the hairs out my ass, so no, i'm not gonna bother proving things to you.

I apologize for giving you the mistaken impression I cared what you thought. The game has been played, completed and uninstalled. I'm not about to download it again for your benefit.

I was running the game at the same settings as TPU (ie: without PhysX)

I also didn't use the word "smooth" because that's subjective. (thought it was smooth for me) I said I averaged higher FPS than what is shown in those charts.

 

[blackened23]

Oh, okay. So now we learn the truth. Smooth for you guys means 30 fps. Gotcha. And now it's subjective. And you don't care what I think. Perfect! I don't care what either of you think, either. Neither of you uploaded a benchmark. PERFECT. I'm calling you both out on your BS, I don't care what you think either. I know you're both exaggerating and I know the game doesn't maintain 60 for either of you. But your definition of smooth is 20-30 fps. Okay if say so.

Well there must be something ure missing. My 2500k is running @ 4.4ghz, have it on ssd, & i have 16gb RAM @ cl9, maybe that has something to do with it being smooth as butter.

Also, this game is a RPG, so smooth gameplay is perceived very differently than a fps which needs fps in the 50ish area.

lol wow you are determined to make your self look silly. your cpu at 4.4 makes ZERO difference at those settings. 16gb of ram makes no difference and and an ssd has no impact on actual game performance.

I have played and benchmarked the hell out of this game with my system using even highly oced gtx670. so bs on playing it smoothly on max settings with a gtx670. and btw its a shooter for the most part.

Can we post our Metro 2033 benchmarks just for fun?

Here's my results. (7870 1100/1400). 1080p, everything maxed out except for PhysX which is turned off.

 

[2is]

I didn't say 30 fps, and smooth is subjective. Some people perceive smoothness at 30 fps, others need 60 while others claim they need 100. Perhaps you don't know what the word subjective means?

 

[blackened23]

lol wow you are determined to make your self look silly. your cpu at 4.4 makes ZERO difference at those settings. and look at my sig and and you will see the same thing for the cpu.

But metro 2033 is a RPG, toyota. RPG. That statement alone made me crack up.

Well your definition of smooth is garbage. Most people consider 60 fps consistent to be smooth. When I play a game at 30 fps, I can tell more often than not that it's stuttery herky jerky nonsense.

But you say it's subjective. If-you-say-so.

How about telling us more about how Metro 2033 is a role playing game? Your earlier claim. That should be entertaining.

 

[toyota]

the game does not even average 30 fps on max settings so to claim its smooth at those settings is nonsense. it drops into the low 20s quite a bit. the game is far from smooth on max settings so maybe he has a different idea of what smooth is.

Oh look, nearly 24% higher performance than the TPU charts...

I'm still waiting on your result. By the way, AMD GCN runs metro 2033 substantially faster than their nvidia counterparts. Probably faster than your 670. But you won't prove it, so where does that leave us. He also isn't using physx, which you said you are.

Tell us about how metro 2033 is a role playing game. TELL US.

I don't have a 670, I didn't say it's an RPG and the GCN tirade is not even relevant to this discussion. Your posts read like you're someone with ADHD having a massive turrets episode pacing nervously in a little room holding his laptop hitting the F5 button.

 

[poohbear]

blackened23 and Toyota, i really feel sorry for both of you. Your life seems to revolve around tangible numbers, i came in here saying the game ran smooth and you both ridiculed me and blasted me. Really sad that the forum has trolls like u guys around. You guys are really just.... nerds with no life it seems. You do realize you're getting all riled up about the FPS in a 3 year old video game? but hey all the best to both of you. Now if you'll excuse me i'm hitting the gym, then meeting some friends for dinner. Yes, people do such things.

PS i graduated high school 11 years ago.

Oh, okay. Insult me. Deflect from your earlier statement that "Oh hey I back up poobear's earlier statement that the game is smooth at 1080p". Do everything but acknowledge the exaggeration of your earlier statement.

Well the point is already proven, so no point arguing now. You were both exaggerating. I knew this from the beginning, though. Oh, and poohbear, i'm sure you're filthy rich and you're just a superstar, and now you're going to the gym.. Of course you are. Of course I believe you. I was calling you out on your BS, which you basically acknowledged. Especially with the statement "Metro 2033 is a RPG". That alone tells me you either don't own the game or are completely oblivious to what a RPG is. Nothing more to discuss.

Is not an exaggeration. You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

nice try and I love how you skipped the part where I have actually played the damn game and know first hand. so now you are so immature that you try to act like we have no lives because we call you on asinine claim of yours. gee I guess I am not 41 years old, belong to the Y or have any friends.

more bs? my oced gtx670 just barely exceeded their 680 numbers. my oced gtx660ti just got 26.74 which is right in line for what they show. stop just making up crap as you go along.

How about the fact that someone just posted benches that show significant improvement over the TPU charts? It's convenient to ignore that. I'm sorry you were only able to match what they got while some of us are able to do a bit better. That's just a fact of life you'll have to come to terms with in your own way. If you feel better by calling it BS, more power to you.

I ran the benchmark again, but with PhysX enabled this time.

Minor overclock, smaller resolution (1080p vs 1200p) and newer drivers are certainly enough to account for a single frame difference from TPU.

Close enough for you?

his was on oced 7870 and maybe they had not ran the same drivers so yes that could result in a few more fps. what part of me telling you that I just ran the benchmark on the 660ti do you not understand? I have tested the 660ti and my previous 670 across various drivers and numbers are right in line for what they show there.

 

[2is]

Earlier you said a 670 can't even average 30fps. Isn't it possible that an OC and newer drivers on poohbear's computer contributed to better than the posted charts? Why do you find that so inconceivable?

The part about what you got with your 660's don't change what I got. I'm not sure why you think it would. I am not you, you are not me.

even the 680 is not averaging 30 fps and I just told you that drivers have not made any difference for Nvidia in this game for a looong time. but lets say he does get an average of 30 fps with his gtx670 oced. so what as it will still be choppy as hell with really low minimums. this game on max settings is a dog. he lives in fantasyland claiming its smooth on max settings with a gtx670.

The charts at TPU didn't have PhysX enabled. And yes, drivers and OC are enough to account for that. That's exactly my point, that those charts aren't the gospel Toyota thinks they are.
