Forza Horizon 5 is a 2021 racing video game developed by Playground Games and published by Xbox Game Studios. The twelfth main instalment of the Forza series, the game is set in a fictionalised representation of Mexico. It was released on 9 November 2021 for Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. (Wikipedia).

Engine: ForzaTech. We test using the Extreme preset, DX12 API.

Next is Forza Horizon 5, where we are testing with the latest patch installed which seemed to worsen 1% low performance on Nvidia GPUs based on my testing. The RTX 4080 is still the second-fastest card on our chart in terms of the average frame rate, but it's 1% lows are actually worse than the 6950 XT and 6900 XT at both 1440p and 4K. Hopefully a new driver or game update can fix this.
