Forza Horizon 5 was released in 2021. We list 15 published FPS results for it from GameGPU, covering 5 graphics cards. Steam lists NVidia GTX 970, AMD RX 470, OR Intel Arc A380 as the minimum graphics card, a mid-range card by today's standards. Against those results our estimate landed within ±30% 11 of 15 times.
Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for Forza Horizon 5, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.
