Our verdict
Needs a mid-range graphics card
A budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT is below its minimum on video memory at 1080p; 60 FPS needs about an RTX 3070 or RX 6700 XT.

GAMERSPECS ESTIMATEOn a mid-range RTX 4060 or RX 7600, Monster Hunter Wilds averages about 55 FPS at 1080p; a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT is below its minimum on video memory, and a high-end RTX 4080 or RX 7900 XTX averages about 119 FPS.
Figures are at Ultra with Quality upscaling: the settings of the measured benchmark Monster Hunter Wilds's estimates are calibrated to. The publisher's own target (1080p at 60 FPS on Medium) counts frame generation; these figures never do.
Calibrated to ComputerBase's measured test of 23 graphics cards (Ultra, DLSS/FSR Quality, no ray tracing).

Check My PC →What limits performance in Monster Hunter Wilds
The graphics card: frame rates in Monster Hunter Wilds rise with GPU speed until about 131 FPS, where the processor takes over.
Graphics card (GPU)
Main limit
60 FPS at 1080p needs about an RTX 3070 or RX 6700 XT; a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT is below its minimum on video memory.
Processor (CPU)
Limits above ~131 FPS
In Tom's Hardware's testing at 1080p, Monster Hunter Wilds levels off at about 131 FPS with a Core Ultra 5 245K and about 159 with the fastest processor tested (Ryzen 7 9800X3D): past that point, a faster graphics card adds nothing. The FPS calculators work the limit out for your own processor. Source: Tom's Hardware
Video memory (VRAM)
6 GB min · 8 GB rec
The minimum spec lists 6 GB of video memory and the recommended spec 8 GB. On a card with less, lower texture quality first: running out of video memory shows up as stutter or blurry textures, not as a lower average.
Settings to lower first in Monster Hunter Wilds
- 1Resolution or render scale, or upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) where Monster Hunter Wilds offers it. Rendering fewer pixels is the biggest single saving.
- 2Then shadows, volumetric effects (fog, clouds, lighting) and ambient occlusion: in most games these cost the most frame rate for the least visible difference.
- 3Texture quality only if your card has less than 8 GB of video memory. With enough memory, textures cost little frame rate, so keep them high.
- 4Above about 131 FPS, graphics settings stop helping: the processor is the limit there. Settings that add work for the processor, such as crowd density, are the ones to lower if Monster Hunter Wilds has them.
