So I want to play Forza Horizon 5 but apparently I don't meet the minimum specs for my gpu, it says that I need to have minimum gtx 970 and I have a 1050ti, but when you look at the specs of both graphics cards, they both have the same pixel shader, vertex shader and vram. Can I still run the game?

The minimum requirements is how the developers intend the game to be for an enjoyable experience - this can be subjective as everyone enjoys things differently. A person with a 3080 is spoilt, they wont enjoy gaming on a gtx 1070. A person with a intel integrated gpu on the other hand would love gaming on a 1050ti.

Just tone down the settings, play around with resolution scaling, maybe 80% of 1080p. Modern AAA titles look good even at their lowest settings, so the visual fidelity will still be great.

If you havent already done so, OC the 1050ti
