Best Monster Hunter Wilds settings for the NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti (laptop, 6GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti (laptop, 6GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Monster Hunter Wilds runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 26FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti (laptop, 6GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB 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 runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 26 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 44 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 25 FPS at 4K. Monster Hunter Wilds offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti (laptop, 6GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 6GB 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.
