Intel Arc A580 Review ft. Sparkle Orc

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.

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

Forza Horizon 5 sees the A580 take a backward step, relatively speaking. It's still very playable, hitting 91FPS at 1080p, but it's 18% slower than the RX 6600. Versus Nvidia though, the A580 is 20% faster than the RTX 3050 and only 11% behind the RTX 3060.

1440p is still a smooth experience too, hitting 76FPS, though that's only just behind the A750 – but do remember the A580 is factory overclocked.
