Forza Horizon 4 System Requirements

Forza Horizon 4 system requirements ask for at least 65 GB free storage space to install the game. The developers ask for a minimum of 8 GB RAM, but recommend 12 GB RAM. The minimum graphics card you can play it on is equivalent to an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti. But for the best experience, the recommended graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 or better. The Forza Horizon 4 PC requirements state the minimum CPU you can play the game on is equivalent to an Intel Core i3-4170, whereas a CPU equivalent or better than an Intel Core i7-3820 is recommended. The demanding requirements are obvious in game - these are some of the best graphics you can get in a racing game.

Forza Horizon 4 Steam

Forza Horizon 4 Steam is finally here two years after the games initial release! You can also get the game through the Xbox Game Pass subscription service.

Forza Horizon 4 issues can include infinite load screens and refusal to boot - this can be caused by the Discord Overlay or some anti-virus programs preventing the game from starting. But on the whole, FH4 is really well optimised for PCs - it is the second game in the Horizon series to be released on PC after Forza Horizon 3, so developers Playground Games have this game polished. It has full peripheral support too - for controllers and steering wheels.

Forza Horizon 4 Performance Guide

Forza Horizon 4 stuttering and low FPS issues can be sorted a number of ways, although the game is generally really well optimised.

• First, ensure you have the latest AMD Drivers or NVIDIA Drivers for your graphics card. 
• Graphical options such as Shadow Quality and MSAA can be very demanding, so try turning these down if you want to boost your FPS.
• Make sure you run the game in fullscreen and not windowed - windowed mode will see FPS losses.
• If your PC is struggling to hit 60 FPS no matter what you do, try using the 30 FPS cap for a more consistent framerate.

Forza Horizon 4 will run on PC system with Windows 10 and upwards.
