UE5 doesn’t require a high-end GPU. My GPU is old and it still runs UE5 at same performance as UE4. Just [disable the new stuff](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/fps-drop-between-ue4-and-ue5/231296/25) and you’ll have UE4 performance again. [UE5 is a lot more than just graphics.](https://docs.unrealengine.com/5.0/en-US/unreal-engine-5-0-release-notes/)
