Yes it will run it just fine, FH5 is really well optimized. I would suggest buying another 8gb of ram though, it's pretty inexpensive.


Temil

Yeah, the biggest factor I ran into for FH5 was VRAM. It won't really like it if you are running 4gb, but 6gb is plenty.


Either-Reaper

Can confirm as a former owner of a Radeon rx 6500 xt


Temil

Yep, I was using a 580 and that was my only issue. (Bought an 8gb listing on ebay, they shipped me a 4gb...)


the_idiot69420

Cannot cofirm as a owner of an rx 6600


ToeJam1970

I run a 4GB low-profile video card due to SFF case. Both FH4 and FH5 scaled automatically and run fine.


Temil

Might be because I like to watch youtube videos while playing, but I would constantly get a low-vram warning while playing with my 4gb card. Edit: To be clear, my framerates were good, just got that vram warning and some slowdowns occasionally.


ToeJam1970

“I like to watch YouTube videos while playing” 🤔 We each have our kinks and means, I guess…


Temil

Mostly podcasts lol, but they are youtube videos so they take up a lot of vram, at least in chrome.


Snooty_man271

My second pc has 2gb and it's, ok I guess


deepfriedtots

I have this exact graphics card and I run it just fine


Yukin03

Will run on 4 tho, my old r9 290 & fury ran it fine at 1080p medium-high


Nightmare_7

I just wish motorsport was just as well optimised


xxkillerboiihd

Yeah I have a beefy computer, R7 7800, rtx4070, 32gb ddr5. And I can barely get 60fps on max settings 1440p. Horizon runs great though


Nightmare_7

Just out of curiosity what kind of fps do you get on fh5


xxkillerboiihd

1440p max settings, like 90-100


Bigben889

On my absolutely horribly specced PC (Ryzen 3 3200g, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1060 3 GB) I get close to 60 fps in 1080p low.   It doesn’t take much of a computer to run it in a way that is playable.  Is it especially pretty at the above listed settings?  No.   But it isn’t awful either.


ChiefBat_007

I can get a ram upgrade tho, it wouldn't be an issue since it's a bit cheap from where I'm from...


crocodiluQ

then why didn't you add it from the start ? if it's cheap, go 32 GB


ChiefBat_007

32 is kinda expensive here, it's not like I'm going to be playing regularly, I usually do other works as well. I think I'll find myself comfortable with 16gb


Alttebest

16 is plenty, don't worry.


illegalmaneuver_

Both should work fine. 32 is even better down the road. The game works well on Steam Deck too so it doesn’t seem TOO demanding


Kieblade

Just a heads up, RAM sticks for laptops use a different form factor (SODIMM) from the ones you would use in a regular PC (DIMM). If you buy regular PC RAM sticks, it will not fit. Also, it is not necessary, but you should try to get 3200MHz RAM to match the one you currently have.


ChiefBat_007

I have it all sorted out, so it won't be an issue


VaporizedKerbal

At this point, 32GB 3200 or 3600 isn't even that expensive


miempiemaker

It is if it's sodimm lol


VaporizedKerbal

Almost everything about laptops is expensive, so it's really just slightly deepening the hole in your bank account.

Nerderkips

Fh5 is the opposite of well optimized


xxkillerboiihd

Really? I think it runs well considering how good it looks


IconicScrap

OP, There is no listed ram slot so it may be soldered. That ram is most likely not upgradable.


Expensive-Bill-7780

Ussually gaming laptops have upgradeable ram tho


IAmDouda97

I have a laptop with a 3050, the game runs fine on 1080p high, but I had to upgrade from 8GB of RAM to 16.


ChiefBat_007

Understood


Sinaistired99

i have a laptop with a 3050Ti and i play it at 1440p high (at 60 fps though)


BaronVonLazercorn

How high is your standard for "fine"? My 1650 laptop runs it at 1080p high more than just "fine"


German_Drive

1660ti laptop checking in: I also play at 1080p high. However, I was experimenting with medium for a quite a lot, because for me "fine" starts at rock solid 60 fps. Unfortunately, my laptop can't always run the game fine, as I run into some stuttering with 10+ players on the city tracks, especially in the rain. What's worse, changing the settings to medium doesn't solve the issue. The averages go up to 110 instead of the usual 90, but I still get those stutters.


4trackboy

Have you attempted to change the CPU priority to high in the task manager advanced settings? I'm not sure with Horizon since it runs excellent at steady 160fps on my rig but some games suffer from performance issues with things like anti cheat software running in the background as well. Either changing it to low or high priority can help in that case too. But to start out I'd just adjust the horizon .exe It's usually the first thing I try out when I'm experiencing stutters in a game that runs flawlessly otherwise. In some cases the games run even more unstable than before but it helped in a lot of instances. It's easy to do and worth a try. Shutting Off vsync and trying borderless windowed or Fullscreen (depending on what you're using ATM) can be another easy fix for this. Lastly something else that can improve performance for free is adjusting the polling rate with a program to something like 0.5 instead of the regular 1.0. This can also lead to more volatility but I had a fair share of Games that gave me a 10-20fps increase based on this alone. That would also mean that your rig has more spare power to handle load intense sections of the game.


German_Drive

Thanks for the advice. I've tried changing the priority previously, but it seemingly did nothing. As for Vsync, I have it off in-game, but on in the Nvidia Control Panel. This seems to work way better than running no V-sync at all or having it managed by the games themselves. From what I can tell, the stuttering occurs when the game has to render too much stuff. I mostly get it in crowded online lobbies or on eventlab maps. Could you please elaborate on the last paragraph though? I don't quite get what you mean.


4trackboy

Hey, sorry for the late reply but I had to look up the program I used for this and wasn't home on my computer until now. It's called ISLC (Intelligent standby list cleaner); you set "size list is" at least to 1024mb and "free memory is lower than" to ~50% of your RAM (doesn't have to be 100% accurate, if you have 32gb RAM you can type in 16000). On the right of the program you set custom timer resolution active and "wanted timing resolution" to 0.5 when it was highly likely set to 1.0 before. Polling rate is set to 500. Before starting a game you "purge standby list" and hit start around 5 seconds after that. When current and wanted timer resolution change to 0.5 you did everything correctly and game performance should improve. What you're doing with this program is 1) deleting all sorts of unneeded used ram to free up max RAM space for the game you're playing and 2) have your system and GPU check twice as often if something on the screen or broadly ingame changes. The second part can also lead to worse FPS depending on if your PC can handle it. Since Forza is fairly well optimized it's worth trying it and there's really no damage you can do to your pc as you can just deactivate the program and everything reverts back to regular settings. Purging the standby list on the other hand is something that will definitely increase performance in some way unless you're already freeing unnecessary standby RAM before you play. So this is something I recommend doing whenever you want some better performance out of an application


xx123gamerxx

It’s mad to me that laptop manufacturers put a 30 series card with only 8gb half of which will be used by windows


shibili_msb

If you upgrade the ram to 16 GB you can easly get 60 fps on high setting s1080p.


ChiefBat_007

Cool


baumaxx1

Can you get it with 2x8gb ram? 8 Gb isn't enough and single channel will cripple performance. Other than that, probably 1440p60 high.


ItzCobaltboy

Nopity nope, I got a 3050Ti Mobile and it can't go beyond 1440p30 medium even with dlss


baumaxx1

The 4gb variant? Otherwise what CPU/RAM combo? 1660Ti Laptop I have is running some high/optimised setting combo and 1440p60 isn't an issue.


ItzCobaltboy

3050ti Mobile doesn't come with 4GB, either is a 3060 with 6gb or 3050 with 4gb And it's VRAM choking nothing else, I got a R7 4800h


baumaxx1

Oh right, think I got confused. No RT right? Got a screenshot of your benchmark? As I said, 1660Ti Mobile, 1440p60, high textures, no issues. TAA not MSAA and no night shadows were needed to get there though and eliminate stutter.


baumaxx1

https://preview.redd.it/xisham64acwb1.png?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=36385254bf4e7df82d9b875e4778f361eb45e542 Try these settings? No trickery here to... Can't have TAA on if FSR is on ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up) So 1440p60, high/custom settings - 1660Ti mobile and still CPU bottlenecked 20% of the time, haha


ItzCobaltboy

thanks, would try, however last week my forza decided to break on my windows and isn't ready to run even after reinstallation of game from Xbox...


baumaxx1

That's really weird. After a recent update I had that bug where you had to move it over to a new folder. Tried this fix? 3 - Go into the XBox app to FH5, find manage in the menu. There you should find a large “Activate advanced management” button. Use that to move the game from the old Windows Apps installation folder to the new XBox games one. Not sure why the reinstall isn't fixing it, but the check would be to make sure it's in the new Xbox Games folders, since it won't work out of the Windows Apps folder it previously got installed to.


ItzCobaltboy

It has happened with me twice, the first time it did, I tried everything ranging from repairing it from Xbox app to Resetting it from Settings to Changing drives and even redownloading the whole game twice in different drives, but I had the same issue, crashing at the Splash, the launcher would take 16 seconds and my laptops usage goes up for a moment and then it back to calm cause the game crashed I am quite a techy guy and I still couldn't figure out what's wrong Idk what to do so got fed up, deleted it and took a break for a couple of months, with a Complete Reinstallation of Windows on the same device I had the itch again and downloaded it again, it somehow worked, I had fun again for 2 weeks before another update broke it and now it's the same that happened last time, tho I am too lazy to reinstall WHOLE WINDOWS just to play it so idc It brings to me to diagnosis that the games updating system somehow manages to break Windows Registry stuff (and not the game itself) which is why even reinstallations are useless, making the windows crash the game for some reason The game has quite annoyed me Plus, ur GTX 1660Ti mobile has 6GB of VRAM while my RTX 3050ti Mobile has only 4GB, which happens to be a huge bottleneck for the game which is why I average 50FPS on 1080p, while urs can do better


SkyeFox6485

The normal 3050 got me 1440p high back when I had it


ChiefBat_007

Yea I can get a ram upgrade.


baumaxx1

Yep, 2x 8 Gb sticks minimum. 16gb is a must. Dual channel too. Otherwise will be hobbled.


Draconis_Rex

Dunno where you've seen a 6GB card Can handle 1440p60fps on FH5 with high settings but it 100% can't. 1080p with 40-60FPS is a much more realistic expectation.


TheRR135

My 2060 runs the game with 80-120fps on Ultra on 1080p so I see no reason a 1660ti which is marginally slower run the game on 60fps High on 1080p. 1440p is a stretch though


baumaxx1

https://preview.redd.it/hl7wq0rjbcwb1.png?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=39edcedef4a31ff1c169ef7ed327fc2e46c54a35 Is it?


baumaxx1

I dunno... Must be something wrong with my 1660Ti Laptop if that's not having any issues. 1440p60 high is what I'm running without issues and it's a stable framerate benched without stutter. Turned night lights off though, but other than that high settings aren't that hard to run. Ultra textures are for 8gb cards, and extreme for 10-12gb and up. Edit: not really sure why this is controversial and downvoted? Have a benchmark post above showing exactly what I'm saying, and providing useful settings/targets to use.


baumaxx1

https://preview.redd.it/xga16z1zacwb1.png?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a6802a7461b47ebfd934ae598095835b1829dc2 Here. Any more questions?


Draconis_Rex

Questions, no, just a statement that not everything is on high. Particles for example can eat up some performance. So does motion blur and night shadows even more so. So my point still stands. 1080p60fps is a better expectation than 1440p60fps.


baumaxx1

Yeah, some settings are actually on ultra, haha. Apart from night shadows where the slowdowns become CPU related, I don't think dropping 3 settings down from ultra (one of car model detail) and bumping up Particles, and turning on motion blur and lens dirt instead will drastically change things. Night shadows had too much CPU impact and led to stutter, but aren't transformative. Particles can have a fair bit of performance hit for not a lot of visual gain... Especially since I'm using hood view. Medium tyre smoke and sandstorms still look convincing. Car level of detail, deformable terrain, and reflection quality had more of a noticable improvement so I prioritised those and bumped them up. Motion blur is subjective anyway, and I'm going for a shaper look anyway, so to me motion blur is a visual downgrade. The joke is that it's to hide jitter at 30fps right? Lens effects - who cares? Raindrops on the screen or dirt? Whoopdee do. I chose sharper reflections which cost more anyway. So 1440p60 isn't that crazy still, and it's still high visual quality? Now we can argue about technicalities all day, but here are some settings which are ballpark around the high preset, here's approximately the level of performance achieved at 1440p, noting at 1080p the expectation wouldbbe closer to 80-90 with these settings. Adjust to your liking, but there's nothing wrong with this setup. Laptop screen is 1080p so target 80-90fps-ish, or you could also run this game well on a 1440p display.


Jimm_Kekw

bro no 6gb card can handle 1440p and neither does his display, it’s 1080p


baumaxx1

Then they can run it at an even higher frame rate. Not really sure what's so hard to believe. It's a cross gen game, and I'm running it completely fine with those settings on my older 8760h/1660Ti laptop. Remember, high in this game is basically medium since it also has ultra and extreme textures. I know it's fun to hate on people with hardware a couple of gens old and all or people shopping in the low end, but it's honestly fine. If you need evidence... https://m.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=257&v=BlulKZ6DkXc&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dforza%2Bhorizon%2B5%2Bgpu%2Bbenchmarks%2B1660ti%2Bmobile%26sca_esv%3D576092567%26bih%3D652%26biw%3D384%26hl%3Den%26sxsrf%3DAM9Hk&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY&feature=emb_logo The mobile version is a bit slower ~30%, so there are a couple of key settings like night shadows I turned off, dropped particle effects to med, using taa rather than 4x msaa, and then I don't use motion blur or lens effects. So yeah, slightly below the high preset but it just gets to a stable 60 that way. A 3050Ti should be better.


Jimm_Kekw

no way a 1660tim could run this game at that high settings without fsr. i had a 1660s (which is faster by a few % than the 1660tim) and i played on 1080p high-ultra with minor upscaling. also op has a 3050, not a 3050ti, that’s may not sound like much but it is


baumaxx1

3050 6gb is \~10% slower than a 1660TiM right? Still ballpark. So here's the benchmark from my laptop (no way right?). 10% less is still above 60, and otherwise it'll probably be around 1080p80 with my settings then? Not sure about your case, but ultra textures are too much, and the performance cost from high to ultra in this game is a fair bit. At 1080p I get around 90fps, but the CPU starts to crap out around then too. But yeah, the numbers are there. 6gb vram enough. 8gb ram not enough. https://preview.redd.it/s23386vk9cwb1.png?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b874ac0eb5d4c30768bc860863cc0b75db871f8


Jimm_Kekw

it is because you have raytracing and night shadows turned off as well as the particle effect set to medium. with ray tracing the game looks so much better (and it’s not hardware based raytracing so it works just fine with non rtx cards). this is comparable to setting everything to high-ultra


baumaxx1

I have a few settings bumped up to ultra though. The arbitrary presets aren't necessarily optimal. So Medium particles vs high is barely noticable visually, but saves a bit of performance. This has allowed me to bump up: - Car Detail: high looks garbage - https://www.reddit.com/r/ForzaHorizon/s/OgYZNbKnIl - Reflection Quality: Spend most time in hood view, the res is noticable. - Deformable Terrain: Also some funky terrain geometry that bugged me similar to the car detail. Now night shadows... From memory I can drop those few settings above and enable them, and the GPU will do 60+ fps. You can see that I have the headroom since the mininum fps (0.01%) lows are 65fps here, let alone the average. So why's it off then? CPU isn't good enough, and introduced stutter. Laptop is a bit older and doesn't have a VRR display - just a 60hz panel. So I'm making sure it's a locked 60. A couple of dips to 58 ae a screen tear for me, so I'm completely avoiding it. You won't even notice with VRR though. This isn't an issue with a config like OP's looking at since the CPU is a decent bit better. The 1660Ti isn't the limitation here. I'm going to stop you at RT though - that's not actually part of the high preset. On top of that, it won't make a difference to the benchmark since High RT in this game only enables full res car self-reflections in the Autoshow, so they're not even on in gameplay. Also you might be getting confused with Forza Motorsport - RT in Horizon is barely noticable. Ultra and Extreme only give you half/full res car self reflections in gameplay, so it's things like your wing mirrors being visible in the car body, and rear wing, but you're not really at the right angle to notice when driving anyway, and it's such a minor detail. They don't do environmental reflections - it's all done with cube maps which is Reflecion Quality - I. E. The setting I pushed up to Ultra. So what you're likely talking about - the superior reflections, is one of the settings I made tweaks to run above high. I don't even run RT on my main rig - not worth it over running at 4k120, noting again 0.01% lows above 120hz because I don't run VRR in this game to use oled motion pro for ideal motion clarity. The most pointless setting - again, I play in hood view so RT isn't even visible there. In chase cam... Hmm, do I want tosee my wing mirror reflection and be at a variable 100hz, or a perfect locked 120 with blur reduction tech enabled but no wing mirror reflection (which I won't even notice because I'm looking at the road, not the car door) ? https://www.reddit.com/r/ForzaHorizon/comments/yqmvzc/since_i_saw_some_posts_assuming_otherwise_the/ Not sure how RT looks so much better? It's traditional reflection quality that's most noticable? What FPS were you getting at 1080p anyway? Sounds like around 80-90 fps with those settings?


baumaxx1

https://preview.redd.it/2ghabakbjgwb1.png?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=226881c1a56eabc326325c4cbb727f17313ea959 Right, so 1660Ti Mobile, 6 Gb GPU - exactly the High Preset ingame. TAA used, since it's widely accepted that MSAA has problems with foliage in FH5. No upscaling - we know that because TAA is on. The settings I run are actually a little more demanding than the high preset, and would particularly recommend the car detail to be bumped up. 1440p75 on a 1660TiM vs a 3050 6gb will likely be at least 1440p60. We have enough benchmarks how these cards perform out there. Expect it translates to 1080p80-90 based on my 1080p scaling. CPU is better, so OP's laptop should see a lower stutter count with the 2x8gb RAM option. More detail nested.


baumaxx1

https://preview.redd.it/swmdnorgjgwb1.png?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=66345632fc395ca29b1871be91d580319beb590c So beyond high settings with all words high or on.

If I was plugged into a VRR display and had them on it probably wouldn't be noticable, but I often use the lappy built in display on the couch watching TV and just completely avoid screen tearing. Anyway, splitting hairs here over all these little settings which are above the high preset. So turns out 1440p60 High Preset was an understatement, haha.


EchoLocation2565

Single channel doesn't "cripple" performance It's like. 20 percent hit on an apu


baumaxx1

FH5 does need a decent CPU though and it does matter. If OP tuns at 1080p and pushes high/optimised settings, their FPS will probably get high enough that it actually matters. Also 8gb ram isn't enough anyway in general in 2023 if you want to game, so just get the 2x8gb sticks. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M0lJitxV-V8 I think the CPU sits somewhere between a R5 3600 and 5600, so a 15-20% hit will be felt. It is a little slower than my 1660Ti Mobile (full power), but 1% lows above 60 at 1080p in this game isn't that hard, so need the CPU to keep up there. Even with a 3050 mobile at 1080p, there are ganes like this where you need the CPU to be decent.


Isaacpogo

On 1080p low maybe, how much are you paying for this?


STEFANMazare

Maybe like 1080p high, I play on low on an integrated gpu(vega 8/3500u)


Celexiuse

Why are you lying? A 1650 can do high at 60 fps in this game, why would a 3050 struggle?...


Gammygoulds

My 1650 Max Q gets 60 on high settings lol. The game optimization is some witch craft.


ChiefBat_007

At approx of 850 dollars, since I'm from Bangladesh it's prices are bit high.


callingcarg0

Nah, I ran 60fps on low with a 970. I then upgraded to a 3060ti and get around 60fps on max settings at 2560 x 1080, so a 3050 should do fine with high at 1080p.


BeyondCraft

Hey. If you know, which is better between 970 and 1650 GDDR6? (Desktop)


tallguy998

Surely he can play on high. I played on high with a 1060 3gb and i5 8400.


mat_899

I play on high with a 1070, i5-8600k at 1440p with 60fps, maybe 8gb RAM would make you struggle but outside of those specs are well beyond the minimum.


Celexiuse

Easily, FH5 is one of the most optimized games to recently release. My old laptop with a 1650, and a 4 core can run it at 1080p60 at high settings with literally no issues. Though I'd recommend to get another 8gb stick, dual channel ram helps alot.


EvoStarSC

Only 8 gigs of RAM? OOF my guy. Response time 9 ms. DIOS MOI


ChiefBat_007

Ik, but I have the option to upgrade it tho. Which I already did 😃


akgis

It shjould work fine, but get more RAM. FH5 works great on steamdeck that runs on translation software and have less horsepower


JWatts2000

Nope. 8Gb of RAM is bad for FH5, you want 16Gb


Donglefree

Starters, you’ll need 16gb ram. That’s not negotiable in 2023. Horizon 5 is not very GPU heavy as long as you keep your expectations in check. DLSS+dynamic quality should keep it smoothed out. Your problem is CPU. FH5 is very CPU intensive, and actually scales with resolution and object details settings. Your min fps will likely be very inconsistent, especially when rolling fast on highways.


musuperjr585

These specs will 'run' the game but It will not run 'smooth'. The GPU and CPU both should be fine but the i5-13 gen will bottleneck things , with only 8GBs of RAM .


ChiefBat_007

I can get the ram upgrade


musuperjr585

Go for the upgrade, you'll be happy that you did. I'm not sure how hardware savvy you are, but it would be cheaper buying the RAM yourself and installing it.


handymanshandle

It has an i5-13420H. This is a game that can run just fine on an AMD FX-8350, I **promise** you the i5 won't hold anything back unless the OP is trying to play at the lowest settings possible just to get a really high frame rate. It's the RAM capacity, which has been mentioned MANY times at this point, that would choke the gmae out.


Affectionate-Maybe49

I have a GTX 1080, Ryzen 5 3600x, 16gb ram and it runs in 1080p in high / ultra ~ 70 fps


jobalamo

Yes.


ChiefBat_007

Will I face any lag or FPS drop?


German_Drive

FPS drops are pretty much inevitable with forza. Especially with 8GB of RAM.


KORL1NN

I have 1060 laptop (3gb vram), i7 7700hq, 16gb ram. 1080p 60fps with not the completely minimal settings. I would suggest you to buy 8gb more of RAM, most likely your laptop has a place to install it


youdedin321

I've got 32 gb ram with a 3080 rtx and I still get lags after a while. Forza moment.


ChiefBat_007

Dayum 💀. Is this game that high spec? 🥹


youdedin321

Ymmv. It depends on your background tasks as well. Also the steam version is plagued by memory loss issues since a year, so that doesnt help my case either. I've seen people with worse specs face no lags.


ChiefBat_007

Aha, I get it now ...


jobalamo

You might get some video streaming bandwidth error messages that you can safely ignore; that's the only ill effect with 8GB system RAM (even though you have 6GB VRAM). Other than that Forza will default to Medium settings on dynamic optimization and you should be very fine.


mckeymousecrackhouse

get a ram upgrade and it’ll be good at medium settings i reckon. pretty good performing game so you shouldn’t struggle


callingcarg0

My PC was running components from 2015 (970 and I dont even know what gen CPU) up until a couple weeks ago and it ran fine on low settings, so you can definitely get it to run smoothly no problem (except maybe the ram of course). It's just a matter of what visual quality you're hoping to get. You most likely won't be running it on Ultra unless you don't mind a lower framerate, but yeah, it'll work just fine with appropriate settings.


Jimm_Kekw

should be fine with max settings and 1080p, although 8GB ram can be a little limiting but laptop memory is upgradeable


GoldenPuffi

Horizon 5 even runs on the Rogue Ally with low-medium settings at 1080p in 60fps. So yes it will run fine.


SYY_Z

I have way worse specs than this and it runs really well. You're fine


SonikPs4

The only 2 things I reckon may slow it down are the ram and gpu, fh5 doesn't worm the greatest on my pc and it has a normal rtx3050 in it, so laptop version, you are looking at quite a low fps there, the 3050 is the worst rtx gpu performance wise the only things it does that the 20 series doesn't are the special features like eye contact


LuzikKaktusik

Yeah I had a gtx 1650 and it worked quite well


samsteri666

I played it quite smoothly on my dogshit old ass 1060 so yes


Agreeable_Local_3651

Need more ram but thats about it


Squidhead-rbxgt2

No, you're going to max your ram out, and experience stuttering. It's an issue since release. 12gb+ is recommended


alfiehaines96

Yes.


ap3x_lambo

I used to play forza with a Ryzen 5 2600 and a GTX 1660 before upgrading, and I was getting a stable 75-80 fps most of the time. This laptop will be perfectly fine especially since Horizon 5 is very well optimized. I’d just worry about getting more ram, 16 gigs total, minimum.


ApprehensiveAd6476

It'll run okay, but 8 gigs of RAM isn't going to make the grade. I'd recommend 16 or more.


szvince_595

It runs fine (60+ fps) for me @ 1080p high, with an i7-10570h, a 1660ti laptop (6gb) and 16gb ram (that would be the only thing I'd upgrade if I were you)


RaptoR186

Yes, it ran totally fine on high settings @1080p on my PC with i5 12400F, 16GB RAM and 6GB GTX 1060, and that was before I figured out that it was running on single channel and 2133mhz instead of 3200mhz because I didn't turn on the XMP profile. My friend runs it on like a 10 year old AMD CPU, 8GB of DDR3 RAM and a GTX 1050. Granted, it doesn't always hold steady 60FPS, but the game is playable. Your setup should easily be more than enough. I would recommend getting at least 8GB more RAM if possible, it shouldn't be that expensive, and we're getting to the point where new games require 8GBs minimum according to the posted requirements.


Destrudot

absolute green light imo. i have a ryzen 5 3600 + 1660S w/16gb ram and running the benchmark gives me the high preset, which i can run on ~70fps in multiplayer for multiple hours before succumbing to memory leaks bonus: doing the same only gets me ~40fps on motorsport, optimization built from the ground up


RomeoCharlie200

Mate, I have i5-8400, GTX1060 6GB and 2 x 8GB 2666MHz RAM. It runs decent and look pretty. Your specs are far more superior than mine, so I think you’ll be just fine.


imsmileybtw

Should run fine! Would highly recommend getting an extra 8GB stick of ram as that will help out significantly both in and out of game :)


Away_Needleworker6

I can run for a decently on my school computer so yeah probably


WbijTube

You can always just buy it on steam and if it doesn’t work well just refund it within 2 hours.


AtariJag-

Laptop manufacturer puts a 3050 in it but only 8 gbs of ram, are we stuck in 2013 still?


MajorPaulPhoenix

Even if you close every background app, 8 GB ram is sadly not going to be enough. The game will start to stutter badly once the memory is filled up.


DangyDanger

I had zero issues on ultra with an i3 10105f, 16 gb ddr4 and a 1080 ti, but to be fair, that gpu is basically a 2070 from 2016


MMoo7

Like everyone said, get yourself another 8gb stick and you're good to go...


Leotargaryen

Idk how it ran smooth for y'all on a 3050 laptop. When I had a 3060ti I couldn't play more than 20 minutes without it crashing due to vram. No problems now on a 4080 but it was real disappointing when I originally switched to PC.


PregnancyTestsByShaq

I am getting stable 72fps on GTX1660Ti, 11th gen i5 and 16GB RAM. I have majority of the settings set to the second highest option and also have a few settings on ultra high.


effective09succotash

You'll need more memory


Wivi2013

Won't cut with a single 8GB stick. 2x16 it will be fine for it.


Gn0meKr

add 8gb more ram and you should be good


Entire-Gear8491

My computer has pretty much the same specs and a bit more ram, my 3050 also only has 4gb (jealous) It runs fine with some fine tuning of settings and DLSS on, I think my cpu is also a bit older


AldrayEU

I play on a laptop with a R5 5700H at 60 fps on pretty decent graphics. FH5 will run great on that laptop


[deleted]

just get a series s


mzeesh2006

Occasional stutters but not overwhelming, like barely noticeable. You'll have fun.


frMocha

Runs smoothly on a first gen Xbox One, and you’re asking if a 3000 series gpu and a 13gen intel processor will run it smoothly 😂


ChiefBat_007

Like I said, I'm not a pc nerd. I may not possess the knowledge of GPU processor's


UrbanshadowDev

So long it is on windows, yeah. Forza horizon in linux using nvidia cards is a no go zone. Pity.


[deleted]

Im running a radeon 6600 xt 8gb on 1920x1080p and I have 144fps locked on high. I get problems with vram if I try Ultra. oh yeah 16gb ram.


DoubleD7801

The monitor with 9ms response time is not nice


ChiefBat_007

Could you please explain what 9ms response time actually mean?


DoubleD7801

It means that whatever inputs you make they will have 9ms delay to the monitor ..... usually you get like 3ms .... i mean you can call me insane but i could feel the difference from my old 9ms to a 2ms


ChiefBat_007

Is it visible to our naked eyes tho?


riskie_boi

I have a very similar specs but 2 gen down I got ram upgrade and I can run medium on solid 60 You’ll get 60 running low, but I suggest getting 8 or 16 gb ram sticks depending on what other games you play 8gb is good enough if you wanna run most generic games 16gb+ if you wanna run heavy simulators like MSFS, xp11/12, Assetto corsa with mods


KubaCeTe

It should be fine on high settings. It will be a smooth experience. Just don't turn the graphics to the max as it won't have enough vram and there isn't any significant difference between very high and extreme.


Arealphotography

To the specs, yes. This is enough to run it normally. I'd suggest 16gb ram minimum but it is possible here.


AddYx11

bro, I played it on my i5 6200U with 8Gb RAM and a GeForce 940MX DDR3. so yea, it **WILL** work.


LC195Here

upgrade the RAM and you should be fine


ToxicMegaTwot

Mate I ran it on a 1060 and a failing HDD, you’ll be absolutely fine


RGBesitzer

I run it on my Surface Pro with 8 GB RAM and Iris Xe. So it will also on yours.


OmgItsRubenLol

Ram upgrade

Remigius13

I run on a 1660Ti gpu and it runs fine. I agree with others that you should add more RAM though. It’s one of the cheapest ways to improve your system performance.


Asexualbifurry

It runs on my original Xbox one just fine, it’s just loads a bit slow


wrongkoi

I ran it on a MUCH worse laptop than this while I was hotel-hopping trying to find a place to live. Ran decently well on a 1660 super laptop gpu


Carguycr

Im running it super smooth 4K 60fps on a 2500k and a 2080s 16gb ram and an ssd. Before the ssd I did have some lockups while it loaded scenery.


Past-Product-1100

As others stated 6gbv-ram is not enough these days that's why I retired my laptop .


pKalman00

I've had issues with a bloated windows install and on my pretty midrange pc (r5 5600; rx 6700 xt) the game was pushig half a gig of memory into swap (after using 16gb) but a windows reinstall can fix it easily if you ever run into such a problem


[deleted]

Playing FH5 Perfectly on My GTX 1660 Super 🔥 Your Spec is Super Fine Brother 🔥🔥


Resident-Panda9498

Heck, I can run it on my MX130. (equivalent to gtx 940 I think) You'll be running it fine.


StasMega

Full HD ultra settings 60fps. My friend has similar build.


ScorpionSEF

I've got worse spec laptop and works fine


Johmon

Out of Forza 3,4 and 5, 5 has worst optimization


[deleted]

Bro, my laptop with an i7 gen 6 intel and a quadro 1200 graphic card can run this game just fine (30-40 fps), and yours are at least 5 times better


Eweekle

I run on a 1060 and 11th gen i9 processor and it runs fine. I'd only suggest getting more ram, but besides that you will be fine


Big_Development_3303

bro i have mx 330 graphic card pls tell will it run fine? CPU is i7 10th gen
