Forza Motorsport 7 will get a PC demo before launch, Microsoft confirmed at Gamescom on Monday. Plus, the game's developer – Turn 10 Studios – has lowered the minimum and recommended system specifications needed to run it on PC.
Forza Motosport 7 PC requirements
Turn 10 said that it has managed to optimise the Forza 7 engine to run it at 60fps on a range of PCs, with an Intel Core i5-750 2.67GHz / AMD FX-6300 and Nvidia GT 740 / Nvidia GTX 650 / AMD R7 250X being the new minimum, giving you HD (720p) at 60fps.
As for recommended specs – designed for full-HD (1080p) at 60fps – you'll need an Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz / AMD FX-8350 and Nvidia GTX 670 / Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti / AMD RX 560.
For those wishing to take the leap to 4K at 60fps, you'll require an Intel Core i5-6700K and Nvidia GTX 1080 / AMD RX Vega 64.
Forza Motorsport 7 PC customisation
In terms of customisations, Forza 7 has a benchmark mode, 21:9 display support, 8x multi-sample anti-aliasing (MSAA), and 16x anisotropic peripherals. The game will also have an unlocked frame-rate option, much like Forza Horizon 3 on PC, so you can push it further if you've a 144Hz monitor.
Forza Motorsport 7 peripheral support
Turn 10 has also worked hard to include support for more than 30 gamepads and racing wheels, so you can enjoy Forza 7 the way you want to. You can find the full list over at Xbox Wire's official announcement.
