The GeForce GTX 590 surprised us in Metro 2033 as we found it to be 20% slower than the Radeon HD 6990 at 2560x1600. Nonetheless, it maintained a 62% lead on the GeForce GTX 580, 77% on the HD 6970 and it creamed the HD 5970 by a 96% margin. S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat has an official DirectX 11 benchmark tool, but we decided to dump that in favor of Fraps.
