Forza Horizon 5 benchmark on RX 6800: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Forza Horizon 5 FPS with a RX 6800 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 124FPS min 81Excellent | 97FPS min 70Good | 49FPS min 43Acceptable |
| High | 162FPS min 105Excellent | 127FPS min 92Excellent | 64FPS min 56Good |
| Medium | 212FPS min 138Excellent | 166FPS min 120Excellent | 84FPS min 74Good |
| Low | 274FPS min 178Excellent | 214FPS min 155Excellent | 109FPS min 95Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 38% | CPU 25% | GPU 20% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the Intel Core i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 6800. There is 12% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
FSR performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Forza Horizon 5 at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the RX 6800 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 124 | 155 | 180 |
| 1440p | 97 | 131 | 160 |
| 4K | 49 | 71 | 91 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6800 does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and FSR is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
With that CPU, the RX 6800 has headroom to spare in Forza Horizon 5: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RX 6800 Enough for Forza Horizon 5?
The RX 6800 delivers 124 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Forza Horizon 5. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 97 FPS and at 4K 49 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
