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 Xeon Platinum 8352M is 127% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-11600K).
The GeForce RTX 4090 sets the FPS ceiling at 1080p (high/ultra), all 1440p settings, while the Xeon Platinum 8352M still has additional frame-generation headroom. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1080p (low/medium), all 4k settings.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $6120. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 9 FPS, equivalent to 0 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1440p ultra, the GeForce RTX 4090 sets the ceiling at about 19 FPS, while the Xeon Platinum 8352M has headroom up to 28 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 32% (FPS gap: 9 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 6/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 6/12.
Your GeForce RTX 4090 is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the Xeon Platinum 8352M frame-generation potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | Balanced | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 18% | GPU Limits CPU 29% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 29% | GPU Limits CPU 24% | GPU Limits CPU 22% | 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.

The Xeon Platinum 8352M 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 $6120 ($4471 CPU + $1649 GPU). Your GeForce RTX 4090 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 card with a significantly better value rating.
Your GeForce RTX 4090 is already a top-tier graphics card. While it's technically the limiting factor here (which means you are fully utilizing your GPU's visual horsepower exactly as intended), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your Monster Hunter Wilds performance right now. GPU fully utilized at: 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 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 Xeon Platinum 8352M 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.
