I was thinking since my cards arent nvidia, It has problems with physx. But again, does it even matter? I have a hard time believeing that my CPU and 4gb of vram cant handle this... thoguts?
 
Kind of slow memory, and I would check them all in the bios to see if they're working properly. Yes, this is a game coded better for nvidia cards than radeon's, but that's not to say you can't get a good score. I would think you could get 40-50 average on medium to high settings. Are the video drivers recent and working properly?
 
As far as i know AMD dont support "physx",i surprised it let you enable it.make sure all your drivers are up-to-date, and i would bump that speed of your ram up.

Russ88765-(medium to high settings)that setup there should be able to run metro 2033 on maximum settings with ease.
 
Yeah it is a very demanding game,Tesselation + Physx + depth of field and everything. will bring your system to its knees.

Disable Advanced Physx and see how it runs then,Advanced Physx is what was causing my system to lag on this game and i did not even see that it was enabled,Once i had disabled advance physx it ran nice and i only have 1 single 6950 2gb. :)

While faster is better,i honestly do not think your ram is causing the issue here.
 
Disabled physx. Forced vsync. Runs way better after now. Yeah I also laughed at that medium settings statement. I also disabled 4x msaa, it destroys fps for a marginal detail increase.
