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 9 to 25 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 6 to 16 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 4 to 8 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 93% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2070 Super) for Monster Hunter Wilds. The Pentium Dual Core SU4100 is 92% below minimum CPU requirement.
At lower resolutions (1080p (low/medium)), the Pentium Dual Core SU4100 sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (1440p ultra), the GeForce RTX 4090 becomes the FPS-limiting side. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1080p (high/ultra), 1440p (low/medium/high), all 4k settings.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1659. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 9 FPS, equivalent to 0.01 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p low, the Pentium Dual Core SU4100 sets the ceiling at about 35 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 73 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 52% (FPS gap: 38 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 2/12 cells, GPU limits 1/12, balanced 9/12.
The Pentium Dual Core SU4100 and GeForce RTX 4090 stay close in effective frame-generation ceiling across most presets, so neither side consistently suppresses the other by a large margin.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 52% | CPU Limits GPU 33% | Balanced | Balanced |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 32% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
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.
See how your processor and graphics card compare against the game official minimum and recommended system specs. The placement of your hardware is calculated using relative synthetic performance scores to help you gauge overall playability.
Your hardware is below minimum requirements. CPU is the limiting factor (92% below minimum). Expect performance issues. Low settings recommended.

The Pentium Dual Core SU4100 and GeForce RTX 4090 will struggle to run Monster Hunter Wilds at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 9 FPS which is classified as "struggling". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1659 ($10 CPU + $1649 GPU). 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 Pentium Dual Core SU4100 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. GPU fully utilized at: 1440p 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.
