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.

Forza Horizon 5 is next and this one runs very well using the Extreme preset, and with the GRE delivering 142FPS on average at 1440p, it slots neatly between the 4070 Super and 4070 Ti, while it's 12% faster than the 7800 XT.

Up at 4K we still get a smooth 102FPS average frame rate too, so that's a small 4% lead over the 4070 Super, while we're looking at a 16% deficit compared to the 7900 XT.
