Richard runs Forza Horizon 3 at 4K 30 fps with the dynamic high quality settings enabled. Gameplay offers a locked 30 fps however has stutters during "super detailed close-ups" which only occur in engine driven cut-scenes.
Forza Motorsport 6: Apex runs at a locked 4K 60 fps with the dynamic high quality settings enabled as well.
This is an excellent showing for the Forza Motorsport engine, the dynamic optimization capabilities of the engine is really impressive and is able to scale the visuals up and down in order to hit the frame-rate target. It also scales up really well from Consoles to PCs.
The GTX 970 released on September 18th, 2014 and is almost a 3 years old GPU at this point. It is over 2 years, 9 months old at the time of creating this thread.
Richard also expresses his desire to test Forza Motorsport 7 when it releases on the Xbox One and on Windows 10 PCs, and wonders if it can run at 4K 60 fps on a GTX 970 without 4K textures, or with 4K textures on a RX 480, 580 and even an R9 390 which is a refreshed R9 290 with 8GB of memory.
I'm really interested in seeing how it performs on an R9 290 and 290X, the 290X is a 5.6 teraflop GPU that released on October 24th, 2013 and is over 3 years and 8 months old, a 66MHz boost in clock speed will put it over 6TFs, it will be fascinating to see how it performs!
Regular viewers of this series will know that it's sometimes a struggle to get a great 4K experience from GTX 970, involving lots of testing and settings tweaks. But what if the game did the settings adjustments for you on the fly? Wouldn't that be awesome? Well the Forza games on PC show you just how cool that actually is.
