Geforce GTX 1070Ti help please

[Marshall_maz]

Hi everyone ,

I upgraded today from GTX 1050Ti 4gig to GTX1070 Ti Turbo 8gig.
I optimized Ark via Geforce Experience. Now I have much bettet FPS 90 to 100.
But the game doesn't look any better than it was. Can some experienced GTX 1070Ti user assist me with correct graphics settings for Ark to run stable 60 FPS but also looks nice.
I just want stable 60fps on standard 1080p HD. I have room to spare since I currently have 90 to 100 FPS but I don't know what else to tweak or take up and mess things up completely.
Attached Steam system info and screenshot of my current Ark settings.
Short version: Win 10 64bit , 32gig Ram , I5 Gen 4 , GTX 1070Ti 8gig

ok ... first .. dont use ge force to set up your graphics..... launch with reset resolution .. and then adjust your sliders up or down from there.

change to full screen , drop ground clutter density , now heres the big one ... are you on a pvp server or pve ? pvp your prolly stuck with most of your settings for that FPS to win in fights. if your in pve , crank all settings to epic , you will see some 30's here and there .
( 1080Ti epic settings , 3440 x 1440 and it looks great )

Single player.
Ok I'll crank everything up and take it from there. If I loose too much fps I will drop a few settings again. Sounds like a plan yes ?

Try these settings and see how it looks to you.

[Marshall_maz]

What about all the options there that have just on or off checkmarks. Should I switch everything on ?

I like how this kid upgraded his PC and doesn't know ♥♥♥♥ about game settings. Wp

one by one , so if something kills your fps you know what did it

This kid is 45 years old you idiot. If you don't have anything posstive to add then rather keep quiet and stay off the internet.
Ark is a very unique game that can have specific sweetspots on graphics settings and I just wanted a look at what someone already have as a starting point.

People like you that makes the internet toxic.

if you use the reset resolution launch option ... it will be pretty close ... and then you can just turn things off/down to suit.

note: this will reset any keybinds

Sub'd to this so I can try some of these settings. :) I run GTX980Ti Classified ACX 2.0+(SLI).

Do you have SLI working with ark?

[Marshall_maz]

Thanx for the inputs guys. I'm running this below now. Took a big knock on FPS , down to 40 to 50. But it's ok , I can live with that and will tweak a bit here and there to get it to 60 if it really starts to bother me.

Yes I have it working. I had to use Nvidia Profile Inspector.

Did you find a inspector profile online or did you make one?

Made my own. The SLI config with the Nvidia desktop is broken and won't use both cards even if you set SLI.

Both cards split the difference with no issues.
