    Are you sure that the monitor is plugged into the GPU on the new build and not the motherboard? Also, check Task Manager while Minecraft is running and monitor the CPU and GPU graphs to see if the CPU or GPU is the limiting factor.

    Both are usually at about 30% utilization, according to in game tests. The picture is from the Msi Afterburner

    is the ram 1 stick or 2, zen needs fast ram, dual channel, or it runs slower than sandy bridge.

     

    you want 2 sticks running at ~3000mhz, confirmed in bios and windows

    Don't know how to overclock

    Are you sure you are running the RAM at 2666 mhz? Check in the BIOS to see if it's running at 2666 or it might just be running at 2133. Also check and make sure you are plugging into the GPU and not the Motherboard. It will be running off of the integrated graphics of the CPU if that's the case. And make sure you double-check the power connectors to the GPU are completely plugged in.

     

    Also, is the 8GB of RAM in your new PC one or two sticks? Same question for the old PC. If the old PC had two sticks while the new PC has one stick, that would cause a significant difference to performance as RAM running on single channel won't run as fast as dual channel.  That wouldn't completely explain why the old PC would run better than the new PC, but it is a factor which will show.

     

    So I have two sticks of ram, both are 4gb. Other older one also has 2 sticks. I have checked its mhz in the Bios, and it says its 2666 mhz. Also, it is only plugged into the GPU. 

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FVYKFXF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s04?ie=UTF8&psc=1 this is the mother board I bought, not sure if UEfI is too different from Bios. Anyway, I've checked to see if I can disable the Integrated Graphics, but I can't find the option to do so.

     

    I don't know how to overclock my ram to 3000 mhz, last time I tried, I stayed at 2666. Wasn't sure if I need to change timings or what, but I don't know how to do that.

     

    Anymore questions for any ambiguity will be answered, but I apologize if it's late.

    I'm kind of a gamer, not playing all the top triple A games, but I play games like Minecraft, Fortnite, etc. Right now, I have two computers, one that is a recent budget build, and another that is around 5-7 years old, also, I just added a gt 710 into the older one. As of now, I'm mostly playing Minecraft, and as I switch between the two, I notice that my oldest computer performs better than my newer one. I'll list the specs of each below.

     

    New

    Ryzen 3 2200G

    ddr4 8 gb 2666 mhz

    Rx 570

    No overclock on anything.

     

    Old

    Intel i3-550

    ddr3 8 gb 1333 mhz

    gt 710

    No overclocks.

     

     

    I'm not the biggest geek on computer stuff, but I do know some.

    I was thinking that minecraft just performed better on Intel/ Nvidia. But, I'm also thinking that the ram on the newest computer just isn't fast enough, and it's hindering the full potential.

    Any insight will help me figure this thing out. I'll answer any questions. Thanks.
