💡 ARK: Survival Evolved: The original ARK - notoriously heavy and CPU-bound on big bases; drop Ground Clutter and Sky first.

At 1080p expect around 109 FPS, at 1440p about 66 FPS, and at 4K roughly 63 FPS with optimized settings. ARK: Survival Evolved doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
