Metro Last Light w/ Integrated Graphics

Metro: Last Light is a first-person shooter video game developed by Ukrainian studio 4A Games and published by Deep Silver. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world and features action-oriented gameplay with a combination of survival horror elements. It uses the 4A Game engine and was released in May 2013.

Metro: Last Light was benchmarked with low image quality settings with the SSAA set to off, Tesselation disabled and and 4x AF. We used the game titles built-in benchmark (seen above) and ran it 3 times at each screen resolution to ensure accurate results.

Benchmark Results: We Metro: Last Light at Metro Last Light at 1920×1080 with low image quality settings and the Intel Core i7-5775C was leaps and bounds faster than the Intel Core i7-4790K. In fact, the 5775C was found to be nearly 2.4x faster than the Intel Core i7-4790K! It was also faster than the AMD A10-7800 APU, so Intel now appears to be leading the pack when it comes to integrated graphics performance. We were a actually able to play Metro Last Light at a normal 1080P display and have it playable, albeit we were on low image quality settings with all the eye candy disabled.
