Minecraft server help

[NEONTNT54]

I am trying to set up a deducted minecrft server on a computer that i am not using and am having trouble setting it up. wheni run the server it will run for a few minutes then crash saying "Can't keep up! Is the server overloaded? Running 11385ms or 227 ticks behind"

i canjoin the server before it crashes on my pc

I am running a core i3 6100 with 16 gb of 2133 MHz. i am using the server download from minecrafts website and followed this video.

Could be your local connection. Are either your server or client PC hooked up via ethernet? Also, what router are you using?

I don't think it'll do you much good to use that CPU for a server while you're also trying to run the game itself. Minecraft can be very CPU intensive, and an aging dual-core isn't the best option for a host.

this i3 6100 is on a seperate machine which i will only be runing the minecraft server on. i will be playing the game itself on a seperate pc.

even separate, an i3 is just not enough for latest Minecraft versions. Minecraft is very poorly made and cares only about single core performance. Try running 1.12 or lower before Minecraft got really bad

Then what cpu do you recommend to run the latest version of minecraft (1.16.2)? i am using an msi b150 pc mate and would prefer to not buy a new motherboard as well.

I’ve gotten this error before on my old PC with an i5 750, it’s your CPU.

For a Minecraft server, all you need is a recent dual or quad core chip and at least 2 gigabytes of dedicated ram for 16-32 players so if you have a spare laptop that has a broken screen or something you should use that.

I dont have a laptop and do not want to upgrade my motherboard as well is ther any cpu that would run a 1.16.2 minecraft server with an msi b150 pc mate motherboard.

Just look for the best i5 you can get on that platform, it shouldn’t be really expensive and it will run a Minecraft server as long as it’s not modded.

You want a CPU with good architecture and a high clock rate. Unfortunately, you already have about as good a CPU as you're going to get in that board. Might be better to go to Realms or rent out a Minecraft server till you can build something more substantial with a modern i5 or Ryzen CPU.

Unfortunately they are kinda expensive. I'm seeing $350 new for a 7600k

ok. thank you for the help though.

You should be able to run a server fine with that cpu. Try turning down server render distance in the config file and see if it makes a difference

Also, if you don't mind a third party option, you could try https://papermc.io/. Make sure you're running 64 bit java

Running a minecraft server doesn't use much CPU. It's only RAM intensive. I've hosted MC servers with Bukkit on a Xeon L3406 without any problems and the 6100 gets a 4 times better score at passmark than the Xeon.
