About

Dirt 5 (2020) is Codemasters' off-road racing experience that delivers accessible arcade-style gameplay without requiring simulation expertise. The game offers an impressive roster of vehicles ranging from rally cars to trucks and GT machines, alongside a career mode, split-screen multiplayer, and extensive customization options including a livery editor. It's a solid choice for players seeking casual racing action with plenty of content variety.

Dirt 5 is relatively accessible for PC gaming, running smoothly on entry-level to mid-range hardware. The minimum GPU requirement sits around the 8540 benchmark score tier, while demanding just 8GB of RAM and modest CPU specifications. Most modern mid-range GPUs will comfortably deliver 60+ FPS at 1080p with high graphics settings, making it an excellent benchmark title for testing how affordable graphics cards perform in real-world racing scenarios.

With a 73/100 rating, Dirt 5 represents a solid arcade racer worth playing if you enjoy accessible racing experiences without heavy simulation mechanics. The combination of varied vehicles, multiple game modes, and cross-platform multiplayer support makes it a worthwhile addition to any PC gaming library.

Performance profile

Released in November 2020, Dirt 5 targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.

Racing games like Dirt 5 are latency-critical — input-to-screen responsiveness is everything. Target a locked 60 FPS minimum (ideally 120 FPS on a high-refresh display) with VSync off or G-Sync/FreeSync active.

Mid-range territory. An RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT delivers 60 FPS at 1080p High in Dirt 5. For 1440p Ultra you'll want an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT; 4K Ultra needs an RTX 4070 Ti or faster.
