How to get the best frame rate in Forza Horizon 6
The publisher's minimum for Forza Horizon 6 is Nvidia GTX 1650 OR AMD RX 6500 XT OR Intel Arc A380 with Intel i5-8400 OR AMD Ryzen 5 1600, and the recommended hardware is NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti OR AMD RX 6700 XT OR Intel Arc A580. We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a GeForce GTX 1080 is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, an Arc B570 does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce RTX 4070 Ti at 4K. Cards below that can still play the game, at Medium or Low.
Racing and sports games reward a steady frame rate over pretty settings. Cap the frame rate at your monitor's refresh rate and lower shadow and reflection quality if it dips in crowded scenes.
