way to get more fps in minecraft?

[DominicNikon]

is there a way to get more fps in minecraft? my GTX 760 got 600+ fps when my 980 gets 50-125 fps and is at 5% load is there a way to boost the fps?

Have you tried Optifine?

[TheMechEngineer]

Turn VSync off and dial up the framerate to Unlimited, if you haven't.

[Brennan Price]

Yeah optifine is a good call. However, you shouldnt get that little FPS. I have an AMD R7 360 and I get a lot more than that

[Thanatos_G]

Make sure you have allocated enough RAM for what you are doing. If you are running Mods you may need to add more than vanilla.

[DominicNikon]

Have you tried Optifine?

yes i used optifine with both cards

[DarkBlade2117]

Optifine though.... Minecraft is mainly CPU intensive until you get 256-512x texture packs and throw in Shaders. Also turn Render Distance to like 12-14 and quality to Fast.

5gb allocated

This to, sometimes McmC is smoother if you put the limit to like 200 or even unlimited though unlimited ti me is just using unreasonable power.

uhh get a better single-threaded CPU?

i have a 4670k at 4.5ghz

a gen 4 i5 has great single threaded performance and upgrading it is pretty illogical.

my old 260 got like 100 FPS in minecraft. maybe update your card drivers?

5gb allocated

Lower that ti like 3-3.5, hard to explain though I found Mc to run the best at around 3-3.5 allocated

[Epiceleon]

why would you need more than 160 fps in miencreft?

[TheMechEngineer]

5gb allocated

 

Try reducing your allocated RAM to 2GB, it'll perform exactly the same (if you're not running mods) and the game actually attempts to utilise RAM optimisation.

5gb allocated

if you aren't using the memory (check with f3 in the top right hand corner) you'll probably just experience lag spikes because the memory dumps are bigger than they need to be

i used to have 10gb with my 760 on vanilla with no mods

well that was pointless since vanilla mc really only uses <1GB and with the JVM the memory usage is nearly double than what you allocate, meaning in your case all your memory was likely being used up for no reason

but why is the lower end gpu getting better fps in minecraft then a higher end one? in bf4 and star wars battlefront i get over 100fps more

It's possible that due to how badly optimised minecraft is, it just happens to favour kepler over maxwell

We'll in my defense OP never mentioned what CPU he had at first.

Well if you checked OP's profile you'd know.

Why do you need an FPS higher than your display panel speed anyway? It's really just wasting power to see a big number
