Singleplayer or Singleplayer Server?

If it is on your computer, you can only reduce it by having enough CPU cores and power to support both hosting and playing at the same time. And if you have that kind of power, you should not be having any issues with performance.

If you want to post a log when you have an issue, we could look at that. You would head over to the Support section of the forum for details and would post a troubleshooting thread over there.

I've got a 13600k, I'm not to concerned about it anymore, but if I wind up playing for days, accumulating a lot of resources, I am worried about lag to a bit. I can just get a server from a website my friend uses to host an Ark server if it makes it any easier to play in the long run.

So every time you start up the game, it's basically Russian roulette.

You have 6 chances for it to end up on a performance core, and 8 chances for it to end up on an E-Core.

And that isn't counting the other issues with that generation of CPU.

Originally posted by Demi: Yeah, I kind of regret this CPU and GPU if I'm being honest. 13600k and a 3080 (EVGA even). Really wish I went with Ryzen in the end. Hopefully AMDs next GPU/CPUS are better.

AMD has been solidly kicking Intel's ass since the 3000-series CPU's, and beating Nvidia at everything except Raytracing since the 6000-series.

AMD's next generation is stacking up to kick even more ass, and use less power while it's doing it.
