This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k low, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D sets the ceiling at about 44 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4060 could reach 87 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 49% (FPS gap: 43 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Ryzen 7 5800X3D is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 4060 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 45% | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 30% | CPU Limits GPU 39% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 18% | CPU Limits GPU 12% | CPU Limits GPU 15% | CPU Limits GPU 20% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 49% | CPU Limits GPU 43% | CPU Limits GPU 37% | CPU Limits GPU 40% |
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 Ryzen 7 5800X3D + GeForce RTX 4060 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 18% and 71% and GPU utilization between 60% and 100%. Ryzen 7 5800X3D stays in a controlled operating range, while GeForce RTX 4060 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 88% at 1080p to 91% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 54% to 37%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 1440p (2K QHD) High, the GeForce RTX 4060 averages 99% usage (98-100%), while the Ryzen 7 5800X3D stays at 38% (22-53%). This shows the graphics pipeline is carrying most of the workload, but utilization alone does not define the FPS limiter.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 54% and GPU 88%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 42% and GPU 90%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 37% and GPU 91%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1440p (2K QHD) Medium is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 48% (39-57%) and GPU 88% (78-99%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4060 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 5800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The GeForce RTX 4060 reaches 99% average load at 1440p (2K QHD) High while the Ryzen 7 5800X3D still has headroom, so a faster graphics card would deliver the largest uplift.
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 Ryzen 7 5800X3D and GeForce RTX 4060 will struggle to run Monster Hunter Wilds at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 51 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $728 ($429 CPU (Rank #295 Value) + $299 GPU (Rank #12 Value)). Your build is already very cost-efficient, but if you want even more FPS, the next good option is upgrading the CPU. For example, the Ryzen 9 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #5 for value).
For Monster Hunter Wilds, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D is currently the limiting factor — the GeForce RTX 4060 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 setup meets the minimum requirements but falls short of the recommended specs. You may need to lower some settings for smooth 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.
