Sapphire Radeon HD 6870 DiRT 3 Edition Review - PAGE 11

Metro 2033 puts you right in the middle of post apocalyptic Moscow, battling Mutants, rivals and ratio-active fallout. The game is very graphics intensive and utilizes DX11 technology, making it a good measure of how the latest generation of graphics cards perform under the latest standard.

The results in Metro 2033 were very good. First off the model was able to outperform its stock counterpart, but even more impressive was that overall performance was extremely close to high-end graphics cards such as the GTX 570 and GTX 480. This benchmark really shows how the HD 6870 is a solid graphics card, even while playing some of the most demanding games on the market.
