Best ARK Settings (Epic settings with good fps?)
Hello,

Just got a EVGA GTX 1070 SC, wondering if anyone has ideas for good ways of optimising the fps so I can play on EPIC or high and still get above 60fps constant.

Turn down sky quality and ground clutter. Should be good after that

try starting ark with extreme low memory

How would that help on epic? Surely more RAM will be better?
You also didn't list your CPU, which is possible. Are you using a modern Intel chip? Or a AMD quad core? How much ram do you have?

16gb ram, i7 overclocked to 4.2ghz.

Well.. wonder which I7, there's 6 generations of em after all.

Anyway.. you're probably just fine for high/ultra. With that setup just set everything to ultra and move the resolution slider down a little bit until you get 60 FPS.

Although I would suggest at the very least disabling motion blur. It's a stupid effect no one wants and just eats about -15% FPS for nothing.

I posted in that other 1070 thread and mentioned watching you're bus interface with GPU-Z just to get and idea as to what the system was doing

Also look over this guide

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=596920117

And the nvidia 3d settings in this one

between the two you should be able to get things headed in the right direction

Do you honestly have any idea what you're posting to people here? "Bus Interface with gpu-z" ? that has nothing to do with anything at all. The bus interface is determined by the motherboard and processor. And even then has little to zero impact on gaming performance what so ever. It's already been proven that PCIE 2.0 vs 3.0 is only like -3% difference if even that. It's not even worth reading or concerning one's self over if their system even is using PCIE 2.0 it doesn't matter.

Also no one with a GTX 1070 is ever going to get "low FPS" in ark unless they're using like a low speed AMD quad core with it. Any i7 chip with a 1070 is fantastic and will do great in Ark.

Just put everything on ultra and turn down resolution slider a bit, that's all you need OP. Nothing more, super simple, enjoy your new card.

Yes, I agree the bus interface is determend by the the motherbaord and PCIe lanes is determend by your mother board / cpu combo does not mean GPU-Z cannot report the load.

Are you saying that a 1070 or 1080 (or any current top tier AMD card) cannot be bottlenecked buy these?

The OP can decide what he wants to do, concern himself with.

I kind of agree, I don't see the point is getting the GPU stats as I can't actually modify it can I?

It was more a tool to see what was going on and if there was something make a plan. If you are not seeing things change in loads with GPU-Z when you're frame rates are dropping then there are other things to look at.

In my case I think it is a limitation of my cpu / motherboard combo. (mind you I am not running a new card)

First look over those 2 links I posted above and give those a try. If you are still having frame rate drops when in bases then there are other things to check

If you have dual monitors you might try to have resource monitor open and watch what your drives are doing

No one (not the OP) ever even once mentioned "Frame rate drop" or "low performance" they just asked how to optimize it for their card. That's all, nothing else. Sometimes you folks don't even read the OP or previous replies before saying something I think.

To clear things up for the rest of you guys. The OP orginally posted in a nother thread and mentioned his FPS drop, that is what I was refering to in my orginal post in this thread. The OP would get the referance.

Was a slight crosst post and for referance here is a link to said thread, his post is post #11

I would turn everything on Epic, if low FPS, I would start with turning down Post Processing, if still low turn down shadows. Should be fine after that. IMO last resort is turning down resolution slider, I like mine cranked all the way up

Ahh. Well.. I apologize then. I had no way to know, I hadn't seen the other threads. So.. sorry I snapped at ya.
