ARK Survival Ascended runs terribly on a decent pc

Getting 30 to 40 fps with stutter on a 3070 and 32gb ram, even on medium. Other big games run fine. Are there settings that make a real difference, or is it just how the game is?

it's not your pc, ASA is just very heavy. turn on DLSS or FSR first, that's the biggest gain by far. then lower view distance, foliage/grass and shadows, which cost a lot and barely change how it looks while you're playing. if your build has a global illumination / lumen setting, dropping that helps a lot too. update the gpu driver as well, older ones run it noticeably worse.
