If you only have an Intel iGPU, its doubtful, without lowering EVERYTHING which takes away all the great graphics.

You will get very poor performance on intel HD 4600 graphics (integrated graphics of your CPU).

Do you have a GPU or not?

Edit: You will be able to play the game on an 860M. Low/med quality below 1080P and you will be golden.

Well that would be your 860m, so yes it'll be playable.
Performance on Win10 isnt really known though..

No matter what your specs are, you CAN run Ark. With a reasonable framerate too. The question is: How will it look like?

And the answer is: like s***! ;) Well.. at least if you want 60+fps. You can probably play on low to medium settings. So it will look okay-ish.

I really want to play ark but I want good fps, but I got rust and it runs like poop

I would take some of the comments about 60fps with a pinch of salt, thats BS .
This is a GPU intensive game and it won't play on all computers .Your mobile card is a good one but the best thing to do is to check on a ''can I run it site'' like Game Debate .
60+fps....Oy Vey!

You will not get 60 FPS, period.
Expect less than 30.

It runs on my GF's laptop, she has a 680mGTX and 16gb ram i5 something. Of course the more grahpics card you have the more pretty things will look. You can alwasy return steam games if you're not happy (check the terms and condition)
