i should probably mention im on single player

On single player it takes much longer for dinosaurs to load in. Also, if you do not have at least 1/3 of the drive free of data, the operating system runs slower than molasses in winter. min 150 Gb free at all times on the ssd.

recommendations? and 4gb never exceeding and 30% processor etc. still seems off' 12 fps is 12 FPS

And I get about 50FPS average ruunning single player on my old system using a GEFORCE GTX1060 6Gb card. So it makes me think you have a storage space issue.

150 Gb of free space on your SSD
