You would need 32 gb ram
Top tier cpu like the amd ryzen 7800X3D
An SSD
For graphics card you would need a RTX 4070 and above

Building a PC to run ASA at epic settings you are looking at a price range of 1800-2500 USD

Exactly...but only around 50fps...^^
you'll need a 16GB Card for highest settings on 1440p and around 100fps like 4070 ti super oc or above...7800x3d works well with it too

Best cpu is complete ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, Ark is way more GPU heavy but not really CPU hungry,
almost every current mid-range CPU does the trick, no magic involved.

I've got a 4090 gpu i9 1300ks cpu 64 gigs ram basically top of the line hardware and i get 40 fps on the center at max settings and when around big bases i still get frame drops. the game need optimization. side note i run the game in 4k, hope this puts things into perspective.

this is not a hardware forum so take whatever cpu you like ;)

I have 32 gigs of ram and a pretty good cpu, I think i need to upgrade my graphics card tho.

We have the same specs. I'm getting 40-50fps max settings on the Island. Haven't tried to center. What's your Island fps looking like?

island i get a solid 70 fps until i look at a base that's massive, i think the amount of objects the center has is where the issue is.

I've got a AMD 7900x CPU, 4090, 64GB RAM and get 75-85 FPS 4K Epic. But only since last patch has the latency and frames been stable.
I OC my my system and enabled Rbar via NPI

Except you'll end up cpu/gpu bottlenecking if your cpu can't mach your gpu

Intel cpu's are terrible now. 40 fps with a 4090
You're definitely getting cpu bottleneck.

Wait for the next generation of GPUs like the RTX 5090 and you should enjoy the game a lot more than you do now, even with the best hardware available.

I7-13700 @ 5.4ghz with corsair aio liquid cooler, Asus tuf pcie 5.0 board, 32gb ddr5 5600, Asus tuf 4070 ti super, Samsung pro 980 nvme 7000/5000 read/write. I run at 2k with everything epic, all the interaction with foliage on etc and get up towards 80fps with odd drop to 50fps. With these settings I was getting following usage..... Cpu=2%, gpu=79%, vram=77%, RAM=54%. These aren't interpretation or opinion but facts as of playing the center just last night. Also Windowed fullscreen. I could drag a little more fps out by turning dlss and frame gen on but it looked worse. Don't build a PC for one game, unless of course it's all you ever intend to play. Just get what you can afford and realise CPU isn't as important as it used to be.

Consistently? I'd forget about it right now and wait until the product is more fully-featured before building a rig specifically for it.

You're definitely getting cpu bottleneck.

https://pc-builds.com/bottleneck-calculator/result/1le1ci/1/general-tasks/4096x3072/

Intel Core i9-13900KS and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 will work great together on 4096 × 3072 pixels screen resolution for General Tasks.

This configuration has 0.0% of bottleneck . Everything less than 5% should not be concerned major bottleneck.

You can check it with other programms easy for yourself - a current midrange cpu is not a bottleneck to a high end graphic card, maybe 10 years ago.
