Best Monster Hunter Wilds settings for the AMD Radeon Vega 8 (iGPU) (2026)

On a AMD Radeon Vega 8 (iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Monster Hunter Wilds runs at roughly 21 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 8FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD Radeon Vega 8 (iGPU) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Monster Hunter Wilds is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 21 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 8 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 21 FPS at 1080p and 13 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 7 FPS at 4K. Monster Hunter Wilds offers ray tracing, but the AMD Radeon Vega 8 (iGPU) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 2GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Monster Hunter Wilds at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	8	21
1440p	5	13
4K	3	7

💡 Monster Hunter Wilds: Notoriously CPU-heavy and stutter-prone; frame generation helps a lot.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
