It cannot run the Metro interface in native resolution as it only has 600 pixels height. The only option is to use a tool to scale it from 768, which not only looks awful but I wouldn't be surprised if that knocks performance. Another thing is the resurrection of old PCs. Tried it on a spare old Pentium 4 3ghz PC, but the graphics card is an integrated variety that has no support in Win 8 and so it runs in a generic software mode and hideously slow. Odd that it has no support given they dropped Aero which downgrades the video requirements of running the desktop.
