The weakest link is graphics card: this rig brings 26 against the 45 that Monster Hunter Wilds asks for at the ultra tier. Everything else in the rig is already past that line.

That readout is the best this card can do in Monster Hunter Wilds: it assumes nothing else in the machine holds it back. Your own processor and memory can only lower it, never raise it.

The same card with three different processors

In Monster Hunter Wilds the processor beside a GeForce RTX 4070 changes the answer, which is why a card-only verdict is not worth much here. Each row assumes 16 GB of system memory.

Cheapest way up one tier

graphics card: GeForce RTX 4080 Super

The GeForce RTX 4070 sits at index 26 and the ultra tier starts at 45.

That is the smallest part in our catalogue that clears the ultra tier - not the fastest one, and not a price claim: we hold no price data, so "cheapest" here means "least upgrade that does the job".

This part alone will not get you there. video memory also falls short of that tier.
