NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Video Card Review

Metro Exodus

Metro Exodus is an epic, story-driven first person shooter from 4A Games that blends deadly combat and stealth with exploration and survival horror in one of the post-apocalyptic wasteland of the former Russian Federation. It is the third installment in the Metro video game series based on Dmitry Glukhovsky’s novels, following the events of Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light. This game title was released in February 2019 and received mostly positive reviews.

Metro Exodus features the 4A game engine developed by 4A Games. This game engine was first released in March 2010 with the launch of Metro 2033. It supports Direct3D APIs 9, 10, 11, and 12, OpenGL 3.2, along with NVIDIA PhysX.

We tested BF1 with the ‘High’ graphics quality preset with the DX12 API.

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER FE performed faster than the RTX 2080 at 1080P, 1440P and 4K as you can see from the results above. We found a 4.2% improvement at 1440P over the 2080 FE, which makes sense as NVIDIA said this card brings up to a 5% improvement over this exact model.

Ray Tracing Enabled Results:

When ray-traced elements are enabled by setting RTX to high in the game options we see that the 2080 SUPER averages 73.7 FPS at 1080P. This is a 4% performance improvement over the original RTX 2080 card with regards to the average frame rate.
