On a NVIDIA MX150 (laptop, 2GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition runs at roughly 13 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 6FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA MX150 (laptop, 2GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 13 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.
Across resolutions you can expect around 13 FPS at 1080p and 8 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 4 FPS at 4K. Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA MX150 (laptop, 2GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 2GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 6 | 13 |
| 1440p | 4 | 8 |
| 4K | 2 | 4 |

With FrameCoach's optimized balanced settings, the NVIDIA MX150 (laptop, 2GB) averages around 13 FPS at 1080p in Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition — up from about 6 FPS with everything on High.
At 1440p with optimized settings, the NVIDIA MX150 (laptop, 2GB) averages roughly 8 FPS in Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition; turn on upscaling or aim for a locked 60 for the best feel.
Turn on FSR (Balanced), keep ray tracing off for maximum FPS, and ease the heaviest options like Ray-Traced Reflections and Shadow Quality down a notch. The full per-setting breakdown is above.
FPS figures are estimates from a generalized model (hardware tier × game load × per-setting weights), not live benchmarks — real performance varies by scene, drivers and game version.
