ARK: Survival Evolved is a game that has good graphics, decent sound quality, but most importantly, its gameplay is something different compared to the other games on the market. You have to survive in a hostile environment full of dinosaurs and other creatures.

As we said, visually, the game looks good but the title isn’t very light at all. The Epic preset is a big challenge for a lot of GPUs but the game looks very eye-candy on this quality level. That’s why for today’s comparison, we picked two fast AMD GPUs – the Radeon RX 6800M and RX 6600M.

Verdict

On Medium, High, and Epic, the Radeon RX 6800M is just destroying the RX 6600M with ~50% higher FPS results. Now, that’s a big performance gap and a flawless victory for the bigger GPU. The sweet spot for the smaller GPU is the High preset which is fine – it offers decent visual quality while the GPU can show 67 FPS on this quality level.
