How will Metro 2033 run on my computer? Can I run it on 1920x1080 with DX11? I heard that Metro 2033 is even more hardware-demanding than Crysis.

Generally, you don't play games based on how good they run, but based on how good they are.

Agreed, but turning up the "eye candy" gives a much more enjoyable gaming experience.
