I got the game a while ago on steam along with Metro 2033 Redux.

Metro 2033 Redux has been working well and runs smoothly even with the graphics turned up.

Though today I decided to check out Last Light Redux since I pretty much know what happens in 2033 and wanted to try something new.

Anyways, get into the game and nosticed stutter already as it started, like the intro videos and what not, and even lagged on the main menu.

Graphics are set to High for Quality and Tesselation and no SSAA and 4x AF, with Advanced PhysX on.

My game lags pretty bad even in quiet parts, dropping down to 15-20 FPS and never excedding 25-30 FPS for the most part.

This is my computer...
CPU : AMD Phenom II x4 965 BE (3.4 Ghz Quad Core)
RAM : 12 GB DDR3 1600 MHz
GPU : Gigabyte GTX 570 Super Overclocked (1280MB VRAM)
HDD : Seagate Constellation 2 Terrabyte

I've tried what I can for the game and considering I'm well over the Recommended Specs for Metro Last Light, I don't want to have to resort to turning the graphics down even lower when I know my hard ware can push it. Hell I'm pushing GTA 5 and Fallout 4 and I barely meet the recommended specs for those games and I'm still getting better Frame rates from GTA 5 and Fallout 4 then Metro Last Light

Update : I tried turning Advanced PhysX off and even turned Tesselation off and turned Quality down to Low and my game still didn't run any faster.

And before anyone asks, I'm using a Corsair TX650 Power supply, which hasn't given me or my hardware any issues for the last 3 years, so I doubt this is a lack of power.
