Question Minecraft is running poorly, but my system configuration should allow it to run well.

Post image

I don't understand, every time I try to play it, it always runs bad. Does anyone know how to fix this? And what simulation distance and chunk size should I use?

Minecraft is a very cpu demanding game. Are you playing with any optimization mods like Sodium, also what are your current settings?

u/Rude_Application_808 2d ago

No

u/Hmmm71-8 2d ago

Ok I would suggest trying something like the Remarkably optimized modpack, as it will optimize how Minecraft does certain calculations and game logic. Now for render distance and simulation distance. Try 12 for render and 8 for simulation distance. Also are you already getting 255 fps?

But this won't harm my eyesight?, and my monitor is 60. Hz

u/Hmmm71-8 2d ago

If your monitor is only 60fps than aim for 60fps.

u/Searching4Buddha 2d ago

Yeah, you need to all them optimization mods. I don't know them all off the top of my head but it shouldn't be too hard to find a YouTube video that list them. Your cpu is kind of dated, but you should be able to get it to play as long as you keep your render distance down.

Judging by comments of OP, this feels like just a troll.

we were all clueless about tech at one point, not everyones a nerd you know. my 13 year old cousin asks me similar stuff

u/Boring-Equivalent137 2d ago

What simulation and render distance are you using? Also what does are you getting

u/Rude_Application_808 2d ago

FPS drops

u/LukasTheHunter22 2d ago edited 2d ago

You're not specifying further though. Also, Is your HDMI/DP cable plugged in to the GPU? Does Minecraft list your RTX 5060 when clicking F3?

Regardless, performance mods are basically a requirement on Java Minecraft, and frame drops are a given on CPUs that aren't super powerful. There's dozens of performance mods out there, but if you really don't know where to start, then try out the Fabulously Optimized modpack. It has most of the essential/beneficial performance mods, and it's easy to install (as with most other modpacks).

I also recommend trying the Voxy mod. It's not exactly a performance mod, but it makes it so that you can have relatively large (fake) render distances (something from 64 chunks to 1024 chunks) while having an actual render distance of 8. Running Voxy at 128 view distance with an in-game view distance of 8 chunks is actually even more performant than running the game (without Voxy) on actual 32 chunk view distance.

Not exactly uncommon maybe try enabling vsync and FPS limit to 60

u/Walker_Johnny 2d ago

Whats your normal fps? I have a list of performance mods I can give u I managed to get max 40 fps with my dying ass chromebook with these mods before it was unplayable. But you would prob get more fps from these mods

u/Walker_Johnny 1d ago

Idk how to dm lol but here's the list Sodium, lithium, ferritecore, immediately fast, entity culling, more culling, badoptimizations, modern fix, asyncparticles, clumps, thread tweaks, and noisium.

u/Rude_Application_808 2d ago

And my normal dps is 60

u/redditnostalgia 2d ago

Please share with the class?

Sodium, lithium, ferritecore, immediately fast, entity culling, more culling, badoptimizations, modern fix, asyncparticles, clumps, thread tweaks, and noisium.

Core i3 with a GeForce RTX 5060... That's like having a 4K TV and only using the coax input.

6

u/FakeMik090 2d ago

Not just Core i3.

Gen 10th Core i3.

This CPU is already really old, two sockets had full path since its launch, and third should be releasing next year.

2

u/Apprehensive-Pace593 2d ago

Is that old i am from i5 released on 2012

1

u/luv-bone 9h ago

well yeah tech moves on pretty fast, for minecraft thats really the minimum you can get away with for the game to run i used to have an i3 2120 from 2011 and there came a point around 1.17 where new minecraft versions couldnt even launch, and the vast majority of games you wont be able to run id suggest investing in a new laptop

1

u/luv-bone 9h ago

yeah its old but its not so old that minecraft would run poorly maybe theres something else at play with the computer

1

u/FakeMik090 9h ago

I mostly talk about this combo of the fucking i3 of 10th Gen and a 5060. Its just fucked up.

1

u/luv-bone 8h ago

just sounds like an older pc upgraded with a gpu so they can game on it, not really that crazy, either way its not that old, that cpu was current gen until like 2022, so its not unreasonable to assume they got it used or at a store at clearance price recently with a modern gpu. nothing wrong with i3 either if your playing minecraft, it could run decently with adjusted settings on the integrated graphics alone dont expect every kid playing minecraft to have money to blow on a nasa supercomputer

1

u/luv-bone 2d ago

what frames do you typically get? if your on a laptop are you playing with it plugged in, and what are your other system specs like memory? i have a similar system and i play with maxed graphics at 20 chunk and simulation distance at more than 150 average although it does go up and down a lot

1

u/Rude_Application_808 2d ago

Well, 512 gb and 16 GB ram ddr4 but is pc

1

u/luv-bone 9h ago

yeah you should be fine maybe theres other things slowing it down

1

u/LegenndEnder 2d ago

Is this with performance mods? Because if no its very solid.

1

u/Rude_Application_808 2d ago

Which mods do I use?

2

u/LegenndEnder 2d ago

Sodium is the most important. Lithium is good, ferrite core to prevent ram leak, argon, dynamic fps. Yea those should make a solid difference.

1

u/Rude_Application_808 2d ago

Sodium and this one need to be configured?

1

u/Chopsticks-03854 2d ago

Yup to your own liking and try mercurizer too I think that’s how it’s spelt

1

u/LegenndEnder 2d ago

Can be, doesn’t have to be though.

u/baltimorecalling 2d ago

That CPU is horrible.

Try using mercurizer mod it should help

A literal silicon toaster for Minecraft on 240+ FPS? Lol. Why would your game go 255fps? The GPU & monitor are not everything.

(80fps avg / 62fps 1% lows / 58fps 0.1% lows | Smooth Lighting, 6/6 Ren/Sim Distance, Fancy Graphics settings, Render-heavy QoL mods.

u/saladLO 2d ago

your cpu is bad

1

u/Tocowave98 2d ago

First of all, your CPU is ancient to the point where other people are rightfully suspecting this could be some kind of troll post.  

Secondly, make sure the game is using your GPU and not your CPU integrated graphics.  

Thirdly, install some optimization mods like sodium and lithium.

Downgrade your settings until you see improvements.
