A heavy RE Engine title using advanced geometry and global illumination. It has sparked discussion by listing Frame Generation as a requirement for 60 FPS in its recommended specs. An SSD is mandatory.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, frame rates range from 50 to 92 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 37 to 78 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 20 to 39 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 93% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2070 Super) for Monster Hunter Wilds. The EPYC 7351P is 27% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-11600K).
The EPYC 7351P determines the performance ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the GPU has headroom.
At 4k medium, the EPYC 7351P sets the ceiling at about 33 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 91 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 64% (FPS gap: 58 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your EPYC 7351P 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 57% | CPU Limits GPU 56% | CPU Limits GPU 52% | CPU Limits GPU 58% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 43% | CPU Limits GPU 50% | CPU Limits GPU 51% | CPU Limits GPU 58% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 62% | CPU Limits GPU 64% | CPU Limits GPU 59% | CPU Limits GPU 64% |
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.
The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

The EPYC 7351P + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 30% and 94% and GPU utilization between 58% and 100%. EPYC 7351P reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while GeForce RTX 4090 becomes the primary limiter at high visual load. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 85% at 1080p to 90% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 73% to 50%.
This profile is GPU-bound. At 4K (Ultra HD) High, the GeForce RTX 4090 averages 98% usage (96-100%), while the EPYC 7351P stays at 47% (30-64%), indicating the graphics pipeline is the limiting stage.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 73% and GPU 85%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 55% and GPU 86%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 50% and GPU 90%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
4K (Ultra HD) Medium is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 54% (42-67%) and GPU 89% (79-99%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while EPYC 7351P remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Both components are stressed near their limits in the heaviest presets (EPYC 7351P: 86% 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.

The EPYC 7351P and GeForce RTX 4090 will struggle to run Monster Hunter Wilds at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 50 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
Price data is not currently available for this combination. In general, look for setups where the CPU and GPU are balanced — this ensures you're not overspending on one component that the other can't keep up with.
For Monster Hunter Wilds, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The EPYC 7351P 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 EPYC 7351P and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
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.
