Forza Horizon 6 benchmark on RTX 3090: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Forza Horizon 6 FPS with a RTX 3090 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 82FPS min 61Good | 70FPS min 61Good | 45FPS min 39Acceptable |
| High | 107FPS min 80Good | 90FPS min 78Good | 59FPS min 52Acceptable |
| Medium | 140FPS min 105Excellent | 118FPS min 103Good | 77FPS min 68Good |
| Low | 181FPS min 135Excellent | 153FPS min 133Excellent | 100FPS min 88Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 21% | balanced | GPU 25% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 3090. There is 19% 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.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Forza Horizon 6 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 RTX 3090 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 82 | 103 | 119 |
| 1440p | 70 | 95 | 116 |
| 4K | 45 | 65 | 83 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3090 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 DLSS 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 RTX 3090 has headroom to spare in Forza Horizon 6: 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 RTX 3090 Enough for Forza Horizon 6?
The RTX 3090 delivers 82 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Forza Horizon 6. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 70 FPS and at 4K 45 FPS at Ultra quality.

Our guide collects the settings that give between +40% and +90% FPS in Forza Horizon 6 with barely any visual loss. Recommended settings, GPU-specific tips (NVIDIA/AMD/Intel) and solutions to common game issues.
