💡 Forza Horizon 6: Forza Tech engine - very well-optimised; MSAA is the heaviest setting, so lower it before anything else.

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

At 1080p expect around 62 FPS, at 1440p about 55 FPS, and at 4K roughly 31 FPS with optimized settings. The single biggest improvement is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality.
