Are my specs too low to run this game at 60fps?

I have the following system :

Intel I7-7700k @ 4.20Ghz
MSI Nvidia Geforce RTX 3070 Ti running latest released driver
16gb DD4 ram
Windows 10 Home

I am asking because I can barely get 30fps at my native 4K. The game struggles to keep 45fps at 1080p without DLSS enabled and even with DLSS on performance and everything set to low the game still can’t hold 60fps at either native 4k or 1080p

You should easily pull at least 60 without RT on. I have an arc 770 and the game in beta was going around 90 fps with dips to 46, after the update I can’t even pull 60 in 1080p. The problem is the developer and not our hardware.

Upload your log if you want so we can see config settings but:

[Edit - new patch addressed this, so don’t do this unless sure (and backup) - latesy patch note worth a read regarding the settings ]Double check your RT settings have really switched to off, and not stuck in the config: https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkTide/comments/z9a2fj/psa_rtx_is_always_on_despite_what_options_you/

Drop AO to low if you didn’t already. Check worker threads (I think you have 4 physical cores right? so should be 3 I guess?) and turn off gsync if it’s on for the moment.

Other things can be recommended if log posted, but those are the main things doing the rounds at the moment which have been shown to help some people.

EDIT2 - just seen an average 25 fps increase after clean install of newest nvidia drivers 527.37, so make sure thats done if not already.
