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 54 to 94 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 39 to 76 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 24 to 41 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 93% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2070 Super) for Monster Hunter Wilds. The Xeon 6737P is 308% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-11600K).
The Xeon 6737P determines the performance ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the GPU has headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $6644. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 54 FPS, equivalent to 0.01 FPS per dollar.

At 4k medium, the Xeon 6737P sets the ceiling at about 34 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 90 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 62% (FPS gap: 56 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Xeon 6737P 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 56% | CPU Limits GPU 57% | CPU Limits GPU 54% | CPU Limits GPU 57% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 45% | CPU Limits GPU 54% | CPU Limits GPU 55% | CPU Limits GPU 57% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 60% | CPU Limits GPU 62% | CPU Limits GPU 58% | CPU Limits GPU 60% |
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 Xeon 6737P and GeForce RTX 4090 will struggle to run Monster Hunter Wilds at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 54 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $6644 ($4995 CPU (Rank #405 Value) + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Your Xeon 6737P provides phenomenal top-tier performance but at a premium enthusiast price. Since you are essentially at the ceiling of current hardware capabilities, there are no meaningful performance upgrades available. However, if you wanted a more cost-effective build that still delivers a great experience, you could theoretically step down to a high-end processor with a significantly better value rating. For example, the EPYC 9455P is a great upgrade option for around $4819 (Rank #344 for value) while costing less than your current CPU.
Your Xeon 6737P is already an incredibly powerful processor. While it's technically the first component to hit its limit (which is completely normal in state-of-the-art builds), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your Monster Hunter Wilds performance right now. CPU fully utilized 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 Xeon 6737P 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.
