Lower your graphic details in-game. ARK is pretty demanding game when it comes to hardware.
Monitor wont help in this kind of situation.

Have you got any advice as to what upgrades i could do for future gaming i have a 1tb hard drive and 500v battery just dont know much about stuff really and goin to save for some upgrades just not sure what id be looking at

When it comes to gaming numer one priority is graphic card, equally important thing is a CPU.
Upgrading those two will give you significant gain in in-game fps

The 4460 should be ok, maybe a little rough at times but not worth the cost of upgrading unless you find a good deal on a 4790k. Even the 4690k will not be worth the upgrade since it's a clock increase only. A 4790k will at least add threads.

More importantly is your GPU. The 750Ti is a few years old. It's still good, but not if you want to crank textures on a demanding title like ARK. Hell, even my 970 I dial back to ensure fluid frame rates.

Best drop in replacement is the 1050Ti. If you can, though, the 1060 is very nice, but costs about $100 more (for the 6GB version).

Also, how much RAM are you running?

Im pritty sure its 8g ram i got it from fierce pc a year ago for the whole thing it was £400 on sale

8GB should be fine. I'd say just upgrade to the 1050Ti (without any power pin connectors) to ensure you don't get a card your power supply can't accommodate. Or you can look for the connectors or let us know what power supply you have to see if you can add a powered card to the mix. But for most people, the 1050Ti will be good for a few years at 1080P. Good cost on the card, too.
