In the Metro 2033 novel, Artyom realizes that the Dark Ones are not as hostile as he had originally thought, and actually would assist humans in surviving the harshness of metro life, as they were -as the book says- "someone who could help establish communications between their deaf and blind elder brothers – with people". In Metro Exodus, there is the "Your Destination" ending, where Artyom lives and becomes the new leader of both the Order and a new community at Lake Baikal, and the "Eternal Voyage" ending, where Artyom dies of radiation poisoning. In Metro: Last Light, there is the "C'est La Vie" ending, in which Artyom and the Rangers sacrifice themselves and D6 to save the metro, and a "Redemption" ending, in which the baby Dark One brings the surviving Dark Ones to help save Artyom and the Rangers and turn the tide of the battle. For Metro 2033, there is an "Enlightened" ending, where Artyom makes a decision of saving or destroying the Dark Ones, and a "Ranger" ending, where Artyom simply destroys them by the orders of Hunter. There are two Endings for Metro 2033, two endings for Metro Last Light, and two endings for Metro Exodus, both based on the moral choices that the player makes throughout the game. The memory clock speed is the same (6.0 Gbps) and the board power is the same, with a typical peak of 250 watts.This article contains plot information that may spoil major story aspects for the reader. The R9 280X GPU will hit a 1.0 GHz rate while the previous model was reaching 1.05 GHz not much a change but an interesting decision to be made for sure.īecause of that speed difference the R9 280X has a lower peak compute capability of 4.1 TFLOPS compared to the 4.3 TFLOPS of the 7970 GHz. The core clock speed of the R9 280X is actually a little bit lower at reference rates than the Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition by about 50 MHz. The AMD Radeon R9 280X is built from the exact same ASIC (chip) that powers the previous Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition with a few modest changes. Some are specific to a certain model, others are more universal (such as updated Eyefinity display support).ĪMD Radeon R9 280X – Tahiti aging gracefully There are some changes to discuss with each of these products, including clock speeds and more importantly, pricing. None of these products are really “new”, though, and instead must be considered rebrands or repositionings. Instead, today’s review will look at three other Radeon products: the R9 280X, the R9 270X and the R7 260X. The Radeon R9 290X will be a little bit down the road. Consumers have moved on to UHD and WQXGA display standards HD is no longer extraordinary.īut I want to be very clear and upfront with you: today is not the day that you’ll learn about the new Hawaii GPU that AMD promised would dominate the performance per dollar metrics for enthusiasts. The "HD" branding is on its way out and it makes sense. Between now and the end of 2013, AMD will completely cycle out Radeon HD 7000 cards and replace them with a new branding scheme. Today marks the first step in an introduction of an entire AMD Radeon discrete graphics product stack revamp. The AMD Radeon R9 280X AMD’s new lineup includes a lot of familiar faces but a lot of new, lower prics as well. 3DMark and Unigine Heaven – R9 270X, R7 260X.
