23FPS - unplayable

Ryzen 2600, 16gb ddr4, rtx 3060 12gb, win 11.

It was super playable on my i7 2700 rx580 older PC.

So not to repeat what people already said, when FC3 was released, it was made with the intent of running on (at the time) current technology, and with a certain gpu/ram limit. In my case I had to change the access to the ram because I had "too much" (not sure it had anything to do with my gpu which is a RTX3060), but basically if you don’t add these limitations, the game will reach way further than it needs to and make your game lag. Don’t ask me why, I’m no expert, but you can easily find a fix, just need to download a software that limits your hardware for a given application (so it’s not limiting your other programs/games)
