Monster Hunter Wilds Benchmark - Demanding action role-playing game hit needs a dGPU to run well

The Monster Hunter Wilds benchmark shows that the game places relatively high demands on the hardware. Due to the long runtime and the many different scenes, it should give a good picture of the game's performance. Our tests show that even very powerful integrated graphics cards, such as the AMD Radeon 890M, are currently overwhelmed by the game. The frame rate of around 30 fps will certainly translate to jerky performance in demanding combat scenes. With upscaling tech such as FSR enabled, however, you should be able to play the game with little worry. 60 frames per second can only be achieved with a mid-range graphics card such as the RTX 3060 Laptop GPU. Higher graphics settings are also achievable in case DLSS is activated. For those wishing to play at QHD resolution with maximum quality, a high-TGP RTX 4080 Laptop GPU is recommended; for UHD fans, a 4090 Laptop GPU is a must (preferably with DLSS).

For our results, we use the average FPS values that are displayed after the end. We test with the default settings "lowest", "medium" and "ultra". With "ultra", we also add ray tracing in the "high" setting. Upscaling is currently supported by the DLSS 3.7.10, FSR 3.1.3 and XeSS 1.3.1 benchmarks. We are currently only looking at DLSS and FSR in selected settings. For the resolutions, we limit ourselves to the usual 16:9 settings 1920x1080 (FHD), 2560x1440 (QHD) and 2840x2160 (UHD). As usual, we make sure that the latest Windows updates and graphics drivers are installed on the system.
