Running great on my 3570k and 670. Full 60 so far at Very high. I'm playing at 2048x1152, and downsampling to 1600x900, though. So I dont really need AA at this point.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Weird, that image on the last page shows that card at 45fps average at only 1080p/no AA/no physx with a crazy CPU in the system, SSD, tons of RAM, etc.
Hope they can get the 7970 to perform on par with your 670 sans physx, that'd be sweet.
Also, the hitches can't all be loading based cos they happen in the main menu, or if I, for example, just move around while staring at the crashed rail cart, etc...
By the way if you alt tab out and back in the intro is skipped.
I ran Metro LL in 3D Surround...
Performance not as bad as I expected! The frame rate ranged from 30-35. There were a few firefights involved as well so I wasn't just standing around doing nothing. Max settings, Physx, no SSAA. I wish I had 3D Vision 2 in this case as the picture is a bit dark on my OG setup. Overall though a very cool experience. Pretty much the type of experience my setup is geared towards, and it held up well. Will probably continue playing the game in this mode.

You could set the 640 to be the dedicated card in NVCP and watch Afterburner/Precision X GPU usage and see if it's getting worked.
I know. GF got home stop I'm probably off the game for the night. I was too busy playing to check earlier, and I never had any perf issues to investigate.
I'm getting mostly 60 fpz though so I'm happy. I would never have dreamed of running ssaa on that rig in a Metro game, so not having that up isn't a beef for me.

Part 2 of my Let's Play went up where we head outside for the first time. Really impressed with the performance, I expected outdoors to tank. You can see the fraps counter in my video too.
Also this time it's actually 1080p

I knew there had to be some way. I was gonna delete the videos when I saw them in the directory and I'm glad I didn't now, thanks for the tips

you could pretty easily put the tesselation on normal (or higher). It does not effect performance really much at all on Fermi or Kepler.

Heard it was bad on AMD?
Anyone have a 5850 or similar. How is it?
Thanks in advance.

It's flat out terrible across all the cards. I think a 5850 would really struggle, even the 7000 series cards are having a bad time

Ugh. Game is just a big hitchy, stuttering mess on my computer for some reason.. Even lowering the settings to Low makes no difference. Still just hitches like crazy despite FRAPS showing 60fps.

And I have physics on high. She dips from time to time when shit gets crazy. But overall, WAY more optimized than 2033.

Any way to mitigate the stuttering? It gets worse when outdoors.
It's bioshock Inf. bad or better? I wonder why the fuck all these stuttering problems recently.
Curious to see if it will run better on my fx8350 rig or 3570k rig. just have to wait for new amd drivers.

It's pretty bad, IMO. I'm running 2 GTX 670s and an i5 2500K.

Yikes at the AMD performance. I won't be picking up this game for awhile.

Strong Nvidia presence here. Particularly the Titan team. We probably need more complaint posts from AMD users to even things out.
How long would it take for AMD to throw out a beta driver?

If you're on NVIDIA and experiencing frame stuttering/hitching/skipping please let me know which driver you're using, and if you haven't done so already install 320.14: http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/nvidia-geforce-320-14-beta-drivers-released

314.22. The issue persisted even with 320.14 and I switched back because that driver, ironically, messed up my performance in Metro 2033.
I tend to stick to WHQL releases instead.

CPU: 3770K @ 4.6Ghz
GPU: AMD 7990
8GB 2400Mhz RAM
Not bad for an "Nvidia Game".
GPU usage fluctuates between 70-80% (CrossfireX)
Things should only get better with proper drivers and CAPs.
PS. Tessellation is set at Max, though it says not supported. (Bug I guess)
You running a single 7990 or a two? Reason I ask is your 7990 is equal to my 670's. That's great performance.

Yea, same here. It's nowhere near as bad as Bioshock's though..
I´m experience some stuttering issues, is not as bad as Bioshock Infinite, but it´s kind of annoying.

320.14 driver here on a GTX 680 2GB card. Stuttering/hitching like mad. (Tried all preconfigured settings including low. Physx turned off.)
Alexios
Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
7990 is dual GPU like 690.
Geforce 680 running a clean install of 320.14, getting really odd performance out of it, even in DX9.

I played a session the morning the game unlocked and a short session just now for a couple hours. Both were ended abruptly by random crashes that locked up my PC and kept me from using my mouse temporarily. Then whenever I try to boot up the game again after the crash it gives me the option to go into safe mode or not. When I choose not to, I get a black screen and have to press the Esc key to go back to desktop. When I choose to run in safe mode, I get an annoying stuttering issue.
The only solution that I have found to boot up the game successfully with no stuttering after a crash is to restart my PC. Logging out and logging back in to steam might fix it as well, but I haven't tried.
Anyone else having issues like this?
I have:
I5 3570k @3.4Ghz
8GB RAM
GTX 660 ti
with the 320.14 Beta driver.

Benchmark is pretty crippling on my PC but in game seems fine, using the exact settings as the benchmark. (very high, tessellation on, physx on)
560ti 2GB
8GB ram
Q6600
Benchmark: min fps 4, max 48, avg 22.
In game is fine tho, at least in the prologue section i had a solid 50-60fps
anyone with a similar setup wondering how it runs, here the benchmark from my pc

5870 here, and while the game is generally fine (50/60 fps) on high @ 1920x1080 the game is virtually unplayable due to the stuttering. This is coming from someone who tolerates it in BSI. The game drops 3-5 frames constantly and bumps right back up, and it makes precision aiming a game of chance. Skip this one until someone gets their shit together on either the driver end or whatever.

I had a similar problem during the bridge levels, using the same card.

It's three 1920x1080 setups.
You download the new beta drivers? If yes did they help at all?
Yes
