Recommended settings

For 60 FPS at 1080p

Use the ultra preset. You already clear 60 FPS on high, so this leaves headroom for dips in busy scenes.

At 1440p

Comfortable — around 82 FPS on high.

At 4K

Around 48 FPS. Workable with upscaling on Performance mode.

Upscaling

Monster Hunter Wilds supports DLSS and FSR. Your card supports DLSS — Quality mode is the best first change you can make. Compare upscalers.
