How strange, i have a fx8350, gtx 660 and 16GB RAM and the game runs perfectly fine on 1080p
I have:
Windows 10 64 bit
Intel Core i7 960 3.2 GHz
16 GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce GTX 560ti 1 GB VRAM
Is it ok for my computer?
That 1GB wont get you very far.

I loaded up Apex this morning to see how it runs on my new RX 470.
FX-6300
PowerColor Red Devil RX 470
Playing the first race on max settings at 1440p I was getting 60fps most of the time with dips as low as 52fps. I suspect my CPU is having trouble keeping up.
It’s propably very Ram intensive, because the XBO has an slow Harddrive and therefore stored all the game textures and stuff in Ram.
Strange, maybe it has something to do with the unified memory of the Xbox one. I have a GTX 980m 8GB variant and the memory usage in GPU-Z while playing Apex always hovers around 3.5GB dedicated and 2GB shared(No idea why it uses shared memory when >half the vram is free) and about 3GB RAM. I run it maxed out with 8xMSAA and V-sync locked to 60, no dips and GPU utilization is usually around 70-75% with occasional peaks to 90+%. While I don’t think it actively uses 5.5GB of VRAM, it may help with the way the game works . Note that I only downloaded the game a couple of weeks ago and I encountered no issues the early adopters had. I feel like it was a well optimized game excepting the insane amount of screen tearing without V-sync and crashing if a Xbox 360 controller is connected before the game is opened. I’m very excited about FH3! I hope to play it maxed at 1080p/60 after seeing how apex performs, even if it was less demanding than horizon.
I’m curious about the specs too. If it runs half as good as Apex does I’m sitting pretty. I’m running Apex at 4K DSR with all settings maxed and it never really drops below 60fps. It’s a beta and it looks and runs better than any other game I have. The only thing keeping me from ordering is steering wheel support.
Do you think I can run this game in 60FPS if I build a PC with the recommended stats for Forza Apex?
We can’t yet tell, but since Forza Motorsport 6 is running at 60 FPS while Forza Horizon 3 will be running at 30 FPS on the Xbox One there’s a chance that Horizon 3 will be a more demanding game on PC than Forza Motorsport 6: Apex. On the other hand FM6: Apex is just a beta which is poorly optimized and stuttering for many while FH3 will be a full game that’s hopefully better optimized than Apex.
Thank you! Do you think that they will release the specs at gamescom?
We don’t know anything yet, but I really hope so.
If you can run Apex, you can run Horizon 3. It’s not rocket science guys.
Will I be able to run the game with a GTX 1060, i5 6500 and 16gb of ram? Ps. I don’t really know a lot about pc’s
GTX 1060? Absolutely!
.
personally I don’t see a point in playing in 4K but that’s just me, I’d prefer going for framerate rather than a resolution where you can barely see that much of a difference in pixels lol
my goal is to atleast make it playable at 1080p 60fps on high settings (not Ultra because Ultra uses unnecessary resources unless you have an extremely good PC)
I can see the point of 4K from other people’s pov but it isn’t something that I see as a worthy improvement, given the cost of attaining it at a decent level. The image is nicer and sharper but it’s not worth the financial outlay just for that IMO.
Other than that I’m the same as you, 1080p and 60fps will do me perfectly but I’d prefer very high settings if it’s available. Heck, having seen how good the X1 footage looks I’d be happy with that gfx level at 1080p/60fps. That level should relatively easy to obtain once things like motion blur, DOF and AA are turned off or down.

Im not trying to reach 4k resolution, don’t even have the TV for it. Lol
Gonna have to upgrade.
edit: Downloaded and played Apex at a solid 50-60 fps at 1080p, should be good for Horizon 3?
Hard to say. I’ve been wondering that because I recently tried Apex and it’s running at essentially a stable 60fps at 1920x1200. I forget exact settings, there’s not many. I think I had everything maxed and vsync on if it is there.
I’m running:
Win 10 Pro
3770K at 4.5GHz
32GB DDR3 1866
EVGA 1070 FTW
I’ll probably mostly play on my xbox one, but I’m hoping for a good PC experience with my hardware.

I sold my xbox to aid in my PC budget… lol. So I’m getting horizon 3 regardless lol.
