![]() ![]() As you can see, I added what I called ‘Max Settings', and that’s because the Extreme preset doesn’t actually put every single graphical option to its maximum value. ![]() Thankfully, the game is very scalable so you can really pump the FPS fairly high if you want to, but it is worth starting at the bottom of the chart. While the bulk of the data above showing performance from the Extreme preset, here we take a look at the six different presets to see how much performance can be gained by sacrificing image quality. As I say, I have absolutely no idea why this was happening and hopefully that won’t be your experience if you do have a 5700 XT, but as I tested two different cards and the issues persisted, I kept the data in… but with a strong asterisk attached. Performance was just not stable and it is actually worse than the RX 5700 non-XT. Note on the RX 5700 XT: For reasons unknown to me, I had significant issues with that GPU in Forza Horizon 5, even after trying two different 5700 XT cards and un-installing and re-installing the driver multiple times. The game does also provide a warning message if it detects you’re running out of VRAM, so that is definitely something to keep in mind if you are experiencing stuttering or other performance issues. That doesn’t bode too well for your 4GB RX 570s or 4GB GTX 1650s, but we also tested the High preset and that found memory usage with that preset is significantly lower. The reason I’m starting with VRAM is because, clearly, the Extreme preset is very heavy on memory usage, with 7.8GB allocated at 1080p, 8GB at 1440p and about 8.5GB at 4K. Here we start our testing with a look at VRAM allocation, measured with an RTX 3090 at 1080p, 1440p and 4K, using both the Extreme preset and the High preset. The RX 6900 XT however, performs 31% worse in the benchmark vs actual gameplay, making it a fair bit slower than the RTX 3080 – which just doesn't match up with the actual gameplay experience.įor all of my testing today then, I’ve benchmarked a lap of the Airport Cross Country Circuit race, which, in my experience, proved fairly typical of in-game performance. Taking 1440p as an example, the RTX 3080 performs just 10% worse in the built-in benchmark compared to my own test sequence. Take a look at the above chart for instance, for the RTX 3080, the delta in performance between the built-in benchmark and actually gameplay is pretty close, especially at 1440p and 4K. However, while the benchmark delivers performance that is broadly representative of what you’ll see in game while using an Nvidia GPU, I found AMD GPUs performed much worse using the benchmark compared to what I saw when actually playing the game. ![]() Forza Horizon 5 does feature a built-in benchmark and initially I was looking at using this for my testing today. ![]()
