Metro: Last Light
Metro: Last Light (DirectX 11)
Beneath the ruins of post-apocalyptic Moscow, in the tunnels of the Metro, the remnants of mankind are besieged by deadly threats from outside – and within.
Mutants stalk the catacombs beneath the desolate surface, and hunt amidst the poisoned skies above. But rather than stand united, the station-cities of the Metro are locked in a struggle for the ultimate power, a doomsday device from the military vaults of D6. A civil war is stirring that could wipe humanity from the face of the earth forever.
As Artyom, burdened by guilt but driven by hope, you hold the key to our survival – the last light in our darkest hour…

ASUS Strix performance is better throughout the last 50% of the frame rate percentile compared to the reference design and basically matches that of the Radeon R9 290. The R9 290X maintains a small, but measurable performance advantage.
Usually when a review claims
Usually when a review claims 6 gigs is enough for 4k gaming they actually include that in the benchmarks, contradicting your hardocp link of gtx 6 gig 780s in sli which cliams 6 gigs isn’t enough for 4k gaming!
They didn’t claim that. They
They didn’t claim that. They claimed that there was an issue with this card in SLI at 4K that is likely a software issue, noting that the 290X w/4GB performed flawlessly. 6GB should be more than sufficient unless you’re using more than one 4K display.

Realize that the Titan Black fills that spot and that there NEVER will be a 780Ti 6GB card.

Also, no mention of the guru3d FLiR test and the DCUII VRM design flaw, leaving you with VRM temps runing close to the rated specs of the components of the PCB.
Fancy 104C VRM anyone? 😛
Bringning this to ASUS tech supports attention, they reply that I should RMA my cards. Go fogure.

That is indeed pretty damn hot. But even Guru3D only says in the conclusion that "they wanted to note it" but didn't hold back their recommendation because of it.

Imo,it’s more about peace of mind when buying something so expensive. Quite possibly the VRM will just work for years and years, but then again maybe it will burn up after a year or two the card cooking itself. If I had $600 to buy a new video card, I’d get something different than this card, but would also check that other site to see if they did a thermal review on it as well.
Its about being thoroughly
Its about being thoroughly informed about a product.
Most of the gpu reviews here at PCPerspective revolve around 4-5 games with overclocking, power and sound summarize. They tell you more about those 4-5 games rather then the hardware that’s being reviewed.
If one wants detailed consistent analysis they are forced to go somewhere else.
Actually, I agree with that.
