Best Forza Horizon 5 settings for the AMD RX 7600 (2026)

On a AMD RX 7600 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Forza Horizon 5 runs at roughly 114 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 115FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 7600 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Forza Horizon 5 is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs great at 1080p — about 114 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.

Across resolutions you can expect around 114 FPS at 1080p and 69 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 60 FPS at 4K. Forza Horizon 5 supports ray tracing and the AMD RX 7600 can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Upscaling — FSROff
Forza Horizon 5 supports DLSS and XeSS. Exceptionally well-optimised - upscaling mainly helps at 4K or on weaker GPUs.
Ray Tracing (Reflections)Offsaves FPS
Ray-traced car reflections - makes paint and chrome look stunning but costs 15-20 percent FPS. Worth it only with headroom.
Environment TexturesUltra-1% FPS
Surface detail - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Reflection QualityHighbaseline
Screen-space reflections on car bodies and wet roads. A big visual impact - High is the sweet spot.
Night ShadowsOnbaseline
Dynamic shadows from headlights at night races. A moderate cost; Off is a common competitive pick.
World Car Level of DetailHighbaseline
How detailed other cars look at distance. High is fine - barely noticeable at race speeds.
Ground CoverHighbaseline
Grass and foliage density along the road. Easy saving in lush environments.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps road markings and tarmac sharp into the distance - effectively free, use 16x.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Resolution of car and scenery shadows. High looks great and runs well.
Environment GeometryHighbaseline
Roadside detail and object density. High is plenty at race speeds.
Ambient Occlusion (SSAO)Highbaseline
Soft contact shadows. Low/High is a cheap, good-looking choice.
MSAA2xbaseline
Hardware edge smoothing - heavy at higher steps. 2x is plenty.
Particle EffectsHighbaseline
Dust, smoke and sparks. A small saving during crashes and drifts.
