Always 40 fps also with frame gen. 4k, full hd or 720p. no matter what i do, always bad performance.

If i play without egpu in portability, the game runs better... no words

I've been experiencing the same issue as you. I'm using a ROG Ally (Z1E) with an RTX 4060 eGPU (SWGZONE). No matter how I adjust the settings (1080p, 720p, 1440p, Balanced, DLAA, ray tracing on/off), the FPS always remains around 50 or lower. Most importantly, I've noticed the CPU usage is consistently very high, usually around 80-90%, while GPU usage remains low, around 50-60%.

Recently, after updating the Nvidia software, I managed to achieve nearly 60 FPS using the "Optimization" feature. However, this automatically sets many graphics options to low, which doesn't make sense since the CPU usage remains high, and the GPU still isn't fully utilized.

I know some might suggest the CPU isn't strong enough, but considering that the Z1E APU can run MH Wilds independently without an eGPU, it's hard to believe it's the CPU's fault. Moreover, I can play other AAA games perfectly with full GPU utilization—for example, Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p with high settings and ray tracing enabled, consistently running above 70 FPS.

Lastly, I'd like to share an interesting workaround I discovered during my testing: If you suddenly increase all graphical settings in MH Wilds to extreme levels (DLAA, high ray tracing, etc.), the FPS will naturally drop dramatically (to around 8 FPS). But if you then revert to medium or high settings (or whatever your preferred settings are), there's a chance the CPU and GPU usage will balance out correctly (around 50% CPU and 90% GPU usage). Unfortunately, as soon as you move to another map or start a new mission, you'll have to repeat this process. It doesn't always work consistently and can be very tedious, so eventually, I stopped using this method altogether.

In my opinion, this issue is definitely related to the game itself, possibly how it handles eGPUs connected via USB4.

Not enough. Only the whole DxDiag report is of worth.

Reported no issues. Enough to me

Well it certainly isnt your 4070 why you only get 40 fps ...

SO it is either your settings you play on,,, or your cpu or something !

game runs 65 to 87 FPS on my rtx 4080
In 3840 x 2160 p ULTRA SETTINGS ....


SO you can't tell me that with a 4070 you can't reach playable framerates !
Maybe change your settings !

ANd i do not even use FRame GEN !!

Only DLSS ON to quality !!
spend a good amount of time customizing the settings, some things affect performance much heavier than others and dont make too much of a difference on appearance and can boost your FPS a lot.. hope you get it working the way you want!
