The weakest link is graphics card: this rig brings 10 against the 18 that Forza Horizon 5 asks for at the high tier. Everything else in the rig is already past that line.

That readout is the best this card can do in Forza Horizon 5: it assumes nothing else in the machine holds it back. Your own processor and memory can only lower it, never raise it.

The same card with three different processors

In Forza Horizon 5 the processor beside a Radeon RX 6600 changes the answer, which is why a card-only verdict is not worth much here. Each row assumes 16 GB of system memory.

Cheapest way up one tier

graphics card: Arc A750

The Radeon RX 6600 sits at index 10 and the high tier starts at 18.

That is the smallest part in our catalogue that clears the high tier - not the fastest one, and not a price claim: we hold no price data, so "cheapest" here means "least upgrade that does the job".
