This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k medium, the A10-8700P sets the ceiling at about 21 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 90 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 77% (FPS gap: 69 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your A10-8700P is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 4090 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 74% | CPU Limits GPU 69% | CPU Limits GPU 64% | CPU Limits GPU 67% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 61% | CPU Limits GPU 64% | CPU Limits GPU 65% | CPU Limits GPU 67% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 75% | CPU Limits GPU 77% | CPU Limits GPU 74% | CPU Limits GPU 76% |
We estimate the maximum FPS the processor can sustain and the maximum FPS the graphics card can sustain in each setting, then compare those limits directly.
Limit Factor formula: (stronger - weaker) / stronger. Example: if CPU ceiling is 200 FPS and GPU ceiling is 140 FPS, then GPU limits CPU by 30%.
CPU Limits GPU means the processor ceiling is lower. GPU Limits CPU means the graphics ceiling is lower. Balanced means the FPS ceilings are close enough that the gap is negligible.
A component can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

The A10-8700P + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 58% and 100% and GPU utilization between 60% and 100%. A10-8700P reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while GeForce RTX 4090 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 88% at 1080p to 90% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 85% to 71%.
Load is mixed under heavier presets. The A10-8700P peaks at 98% average and the GeForce RTX 4090 peaks at 98% average, so both components contribute meaningfully to frame delivery depending on scene complexity and settings.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 85% and GPU 88%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 76% and GPU 87%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 71% and GPU 90%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1440p (2K QHD) Ultra is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 70% (61-80%) and GPU 92% (85-98%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while A10-8700P remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Both components are stressed near their limits in the heaviest presets (A10-8700P: 98% avg, GeForce RTX 4090: 98% avg). A targeted upgrade should follow your target resolution: GPU first for higher image quality, CPU first for higher minimum FPS.
Understanding Hardware Utilization: These percentages represent how much of your component's maximum processing power is actively being used during gameplay. They describe hardware load, but they do not directly tell you which component sets the FPS ceiling.
Important: a CPU or GPU can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. Two processors can both show 40% usage and still deliver very different frame rates, depending on per-core speed, cache, engine threading, driver overhead, and frame preparation efficiency.

The A10-8700P and GeForce RTX 4090 will struggle to run Monster Hunter Wilds at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 39 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1689 ($40 CPU + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Since the CPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger processor will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, the Ryzen 9 7845HX is a great upgrade option (Rank #1 for value).
For Monster Hunter Wilds, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The A10-8700P is currently the limiting factor — the GeForce RTX 4090 has extra headroom that a faster processor could take advantage of. This is especially noticeable at 1080p where CPU performance matters more. CPU-limited at: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Monster Hunter Wilds does not currently support Frame Generation technologies like DLSS 3 or FSR 3. Your performance is based entirely on native rendering. If the game adds support in a future update, newer GPUs will benefit the most.
Monster Hunter Wilds requires at minimum a Core i5-10600 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1660 Super (GPU) with 16 GB RAM and 140 GB (SSD) storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-11600K and GeForce RTX 2070 Super with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.
These Monster Hunter Wilds FPS results are not arbitrary numbers. They come from calculations informed by thousands of real gaming benchmarks, and the typical accuracy range is around 10% to 15%. That makes them far more useful than generic FPS calculators that simply invent values without a benchmark foundation. Actual in-game performance can still vary with drivers, updates, RAM configuration, cooling, and the exact scene being rendered.
Performance estimates are based on synthetic benchmarks and hardware capabilities.
Results may vary based on drivers, OS, and background processes.
