Regarding Metro Exodus system requirements.
Would a resolution of 1920x1080 at ultra settings (excluding ray tracing) be playable on my system, given the following components?
*Intel Core i7 8700K processor
*16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM
*Two GTX 1080 graphics cards with 8GB of VRAM each
Based on my research, multi-GPU SLI is not supported within that game; therefore, a solitary 1080 will likely provide superior performance. Assuming a single 1080, benchmarks suggest approximately 60 frames per second at ultra resolution 1080p, with the potential for increased frame rates through adjusted settings.
You likely won’t encounter significant difficulties. The Ultra settings should operate satisfactorily at Full HD, though not at maximum detail levels. However, this is generally not advised when utilizing RTX graphics cards.
The provided chart most probably originates from a benchmark test and may not accurately reflect actual gameplay performance. Numerous reviewers have noted that the included benchmark tends to be excessively demanding. I personally played the game extensively over a weekend, configuring my system at 1440p WQHD with an RTX 2080 and Ray Tracing set to high (without DLSS), achieving frame rates typically around 70 fps – occasionally dipping into the low 60s. Keep in mind this was with Ray Tracing enabled! Without it, my frame rates increase by approximately 35 to 40%.
Consequently, I’m uncertain about SLI compatibility; however, a dual RTX 1080 setup shouldn't experience substantial issues running the game on Ultra (again, there’s one extreme setting that reduces fps by 30% without noticeably enhancing visuals). A single GTX 1080 will require evaluation. Nevertheless, it should still perform reasonably well.
Incidentally, it is advisable to discontinue using SLI technology with your subsequent graphics cards – it’s becoming increasingly obsolete and offers only marginal performance gains as fewer games support it.
