RTX 3060 Ti
I have i5-12400F and RTX 3060 Ti, is it worth buying?

Upgrade to a 4070 or better, then it will be worth buying. With a 3060Ti, no.

I see it works just fine, play at high with shadows on medium and rock somewhat more than 60 for sure.
And your video is old af, useless and unpatched version of the game.
The difference between Epic and High is negligible, except fps.
Shadows and global illumination on medium are the old epic/high without ray tracing.
Remove clouds and you can go above 70.

He was talking about performance without cheating or using Console commands or editing the .ini in any way and he would be right. Once you start disabling things or editing settings you are turning off visuals completely and or lowering them lower than the "LOW" setting.

Yeah it's definitely playable with a 3060 if you use console commands to disable a bunch of things or set them lower than Low.
You can clearly see the video of how the game works on a 3060 at 1080p without " cheating "....

We are on pc, we have the ability to change things and by remove the ugly clouds for 10/15 fps more and making the game looks better is not setting the options to "low" as i said, at high settings and medium shadows/global illumination, which basically turns off lumen will play more than fine without sacrificing anything at 60+ frames easilly and since OP have a 3060 Ti, which is slighty better than a the *scam* , gutted version he can go above that or being more stable, and that at native resolution without the crappy dlss , if he likes dlss the performance skyrockets.

Instead of telling him ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and how the world is black or gray, help him by telling what option to lower or raise, his only problem with the game is vram, which can be solved in one click that doesn't change anything graphically.
There are lots of options not only " low " and " epic " .

And for reference i managed to play at an average 45/50 fps without stutters on my other computer with a freaking rx 590 at 1080p with a combination of high and medium/low settings all aboard with the " cheat " to remove the volumetric clouds, he can do way better than that, way better.

By the way, the low settings looks much better than epic settings on ark survival evolved, so no problem here whatsoever.

That is absolutely Terrible Performance with floating rocks and he completely turned off Vegetation physics. Everything to the right is almost all disabled. If he would have left the vegetation 3 settings to 1 it would still look good and have physics. Kryzzp even said its terrible in the video lol.

It's "terrible" for ignorants who expect top toer performance from a low toer card, it's excellent when such card can run smoothly the game, but hey, 100 fps or go home.

3060 runs on low with 60 fps that might be true, but then it woud look even worse to ASE. Without disabling anything for high settings ull need a much more decent graphic card
