that's ABSURD

They did a massive optization update several months ago.

you still get shit performance with 2xGTX 1080Ti's in that game

tbf SLI is getting less and less effective

The game on max settings looks nice, but what's being rendered shouldn't have THAT demand

SLI sucks ass

Yee

It's only practical for flagship, even then a bit of a waste

Yep

Have you even looked at the game files? The core character files are huge along with the environment. There is shit tons of detail to load in. This is why its so demanding on the GPU's

WRONG, couldn't be more wrong

You're so ignorant

I wonder how msrp is going to work for the new line of GPUs

From Nvidia

msrp wont even matter i got a stash just for the new gpus when they hit

if it were texture sizes in question, then the absurdly fast VRAM in the 1080Ti would have no problem with render time, also after they are loaded onto the GPU, they don't need to be deloaded with 11GB

SO even if your VRAM was trash, after rendering you would recover framerate

but in ARK, that ain't true

And if it's because of constant caching, that's the game's optimization's fault for not regulating it logically

You call me ignorant, but you barely understand the hardware itself

"I have GTX 1080Ti's so I totally know what I'm talking about"

GTA V for whatever reason used to perform twice as good as it does now

they didn't improve anything, they just lost something

between three different drivers on my 1070 with a relatively high single-thread, I got an average of like 90fps on low?

>literally a faggot with a 1070 bitching about how he cant get ARK to perform on Epic settings with that piece of trash

I used to get over 60FPS average on low with 1x GTX 760, which has performance that isn't even comparable tot a 1070

I didn't say epic settings, retard

youre plain ass retarded

"you have this piece of hardware and I don't understand anything about hardware, and that $450 GPU is trash lol"

"hurr durr i should be able to get epic settings on my 1070!! REEEE ARK isnt optimized!!!"

You don't understand anything, I'm not bitching about anything

I'm stating facts

goodbye faggot. welcome to my block list.

retard

you've blocked me before

"I can't counter your arguments, so I'm blocking you"

So you know, like I said before, and what you completely disregarded, the GTX 980Ti was the flagship GPU when I intitially got ARK, it wasn't a "shit GPU back then"

It was the best GPU at the time

The GTX 1070 performs within 10% of it, so how can you say the 1070 is a trash GPU, when it's the equivalent of the best GPU you could use for ARK 18 months ago?

You're both ignorant, and unwilling to listen to anything other than the pseudo-logic that you made up
