Best Forza Horizon 5 settings for the AMD Vega 8 (Ryzen 5 2400G / 3400G iGPU) (2026)

On a AMD Vega 8 (Ryzen 5 2400G / 3400G iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Forza Horizon 5 runs at roughly 45 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 16FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD Vega 8 (Ryzen 5 2400G / 3400G iGPU) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Forza Horizon 5 is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is playable at 1080p — about 45 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 16 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 45 FPS at 1080p and 27 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 15 FPS at 4K. Forza Horizon 5 offers ray tracing, but the AMD Vega 8 (Ryzen 5 2400G / 3400G iGPU) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	16	45
1440p	10	27
4K	5	15

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS

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.

Reflection QualityLow+12% FPS

Screen-space reflections on car bodies and wet roads. A big visual impact - High is the sweet spot.

Shadow QualityLow+8% FPS

Resolution of car and scenery shadows. High looks great and runs well.

MSAAOff+8% FPS

Hardware edge smoothing - heavy at higher steps. 2x is plenty.

World Car Level of DetailLow+7% FPS

How detailed other cars look at distance. High is fine - barely noticeable at race speeds.

Night ShadowsOff+6% FPS

Dynamic shadows from headlights at night races. A moderate cost; Off is a common competitive pick.

Environment GeometryLow+6% FPS

Roadside detail and object density. High is plenty at race speeds.

Ground CoverLow+5% FPS

Grass and foliage density along the road. Easy saving in lush environments.

Ambient Occlusion (SSAO)Off+5% FPS

Soft contact shadows. Low/High is a cheap, good-looking choice.

Particle EffectsLow+4% FPS

Dust, smoke and sparks. A small saving during crashes and drifts.

Environment TexturesUltra-1% FPS

Surface detail - cheap if it fits your VRAM.

Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline

Keeps road markings and tarmac sharp into the distance - effectively free, use 16x.
