SAPPHIRE RX 5600 XT Pulse Review

Metro Exodus is a first-person shooter video game developed by 4A Games and published by Deep Silver in 2019. It is the third instalment in the Metro video game series based on Dmitry Glukhovsky's novels, following the events of Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light. (Wikipedia).

We test using the Ultra preset, but with Hairworks and Advanced PhysX turned off, DX12 API.

Metro Exodus is another interesting title that, despite being one of the first games with RTX support, does seem to favour AMD hardware. At 1080p, even without the BIOS update our 5600 XT is the marginally faster card when compared to the RTX 2060. With the new update, the 5600 XT outperforms the 2060 by 10%, the second biggest margin across all of our games today.

Those margins don't change at all once the resolution is upped to 1440p, with the updated 5600 XT holding a 10% lead over the RTX 2060, putting it on-par with the 2060 Super. Another impressive result for AMD.
