Getting poor performance in Minecraft X5690

[IBM_THINKPAD_R51]

So I have 2 Intel Xeon X5690's

 

Intel® Xeon® Processor X5690 (12M Cache, 3.46 GHz, 6.40 GT/s Intel® QPI) Product Specifications

 

3.46 base, around 3.6 all core turbo and 3.73 max per cpu

 

I am running the latest snapshot although i have this problem with 1.16 too.

 

I have a gtx 1070 evga sc

 

I am getting poor performance in minecraft only about 50 fps max with stock MC, 50fps with 32x32 texture pack , and 50fps max with bsl shaders

 

Minecraft is only using 2 cores but the second x5690 the MC is using is doing an all core turbo for some reason. Online, people get more fps without overclocking the chip.

 

any help?

As of when? Westmere took a pretty chunky hit with spectre/meltdown mitigations, haven't aged any better since then. They're fine for general use and most low/midrange gaming, but for anything single core intensive (Minecraft is), they're faaaaar behind any modern chips.

^^^ That too, I don't play MC much and forgot about that lol. Sodium could be worth a shot as well, according to friends of mine who do play Minecraft, it performs better than Optifine. Doesn't work with mods though so it's only useful if you're running vanilla.

Minecraft pretty much only uses one thread so your slow cores are really gonna hurt you here.

 

 

Also install Optifine

You can't use forge only mods. Fabric has a lot of mods. The big mods tend to be forge only, though.

 

Also use lithium and phosphor too.

I disabled the spectre and meltdown patches to increase performance as soon as I installed windows
