The Titan is a single GPU card mate. Don't misinform.
It is a single GPU. He's thinking of the GTX 690. Which is a $1,000 dual-GPU card with two 680s (underlocked like 590? I don't know).
I have a GTX 590, which is two underclocked 580s on 1 board. Problem is VRAM constraints, though. I only have 1.5GB of VRAM available to me. I don't know if Nvidia fixed all that bullshit for their 690, but I hope so. 590 launched with an incredible amount of issues, I regret purchasing it, but I can still play games downsampled at 60fps, so it's not a total waste.
In hindsight I should have just bought two 580s and put them in SLI for a nominal extra cost, my rig is two years old now, but that was top of the line when I built it.
Last Light optimization is miles better than 2033. I saw the alpha at GamesCom in 2011, and they had it running at that time on a 590.
The TITAN Optimum spec is every single thing on max at something like 2560x1440/1600. Oh and the specs come from Deep Silver, not us, per the suggestion above
He was correcting someone who said that it was.
Just to be clear
Titan - 1 GPU
GTX 590/690 - 2 GPUs
Can someone stick this in the OP please? These comments are getting silly.

Gah that's rough. Isn't the whole point of those dual gpu cards for insane resolutions and stuff like mult-imonitor gaming? I'm surprised to see such a monster of a card with only 1.5 GB of VRAM
My old 6950 crossfire setup was crippled by 1GB of ram in some games like BF3 with MSAA. A grave mistake on my part in retrospect getting the 1GB cards.

Its the exact same assets as the console version most likely.
Great looking games on PC like BF3 run flawlessly.
By the time it'll be $199 there will probably be better GPUs to buy for that money (because they'll be based on newer architectures)
First time I've seen my 660Ti as a "recommended" card.

You can already buy it for $999+

Wow. So pretty much nobody will experience Metro at it's fullest.1000 dollars
Uhg, I think I'm done with PC-gaming for a loooooooooong time.
90% of the time, every AAA release is so poorly optimised.
Maybe I'm just blind but I can't find any Metro Last Light shots in the bullshot thread.I just saw Andy post this in the bullshot thread. The screenshots he took were impressive.
Oh, that's cool then. I'm ok with playing at 1080p and lowering some settings like shadows and AO.

Why people keep talking about optimisation when they don't even know how the game runs and scales?
People said the same thing about Crysis 3, but even on low settings it's a BIG step up from the console versions and looks incredible, they talk like if they can't max it out it'll look like shit. Chill out, people.
And if you think that the things they put in the game don't look good enough to justify the performance loss, guess what, you can lower it or turn it off!
I'll handle optimum with ease.
I am pleased to see a developer taking full advantage of the high end equipment that is on the market.
Andy did you get to try the game in SLI?
Yes, was playing with a nice smooth framerate at 4K.

I only have a 560ti...

lol Are people really complaining because the game gives you the OPTION to allow it to look better?The negative reactions when games scale up well are really counterproductive.

Does this game use >2GB if VRAM or does it limit / dynamically load to stay under?

I've seen it all now.
I ain't even worried *puts on sunglasses*
Maybe I'm just blind but I can't find any Metro Last Light shots in the bullshot thread.
EDIT: Nevermind, I see they are in a link since they can't be posted in the thread due to legal reasons.
I haven't seen it go over 2GB, but when it's all kicking off I'm looking at the screen rather than the overlay, so I can't say for certain.
