Minecraft Running Slow

[Space 2335]

Hey, just built a new PC yesterday. Not top notch, but best I've ever had, so smeh. When I'm playing MC I notice I'm getting like 45-55 FPS with all settings. Maxed settings or lowest settings, 45-55 FPS. When I put shaders on it goes down to 15-25.

 

I have Windows 7

I5-4430 cpu @3.00ghZ Quad Core

8 gbs of RAM

Radeon 270x

 

I've tried allocating 3 gbs of RAM to minecraft, no difference. I have optifine installed, aswell, but that made no difference really

 

Or am I an idiot and 50 fps is normal. I just got like the same amount of FPS on my old shitbox PC, so I dunno.

I'm no tech man but minecraft can run to like 900 fps (highest I've seen). Something's wrong but idk what...

Maybe the parts? Lol

It is a decent computer. Can run ArmA 2 on highest at like 70+ FPS. I haven't tried any new new gmaes, but it's not bad.

I have

 

16gigs of RAM

GTX 660

i5-4670 CPU @ 3.40GHz, 3401 MHz, 4 cœurs, 4 processeurs logiques

 

And never go above 60 FPS, even though I've allocated a couple gigs of memory to Minecraft and put the limit to 120fps.

 

With Shaders I go down to around 25 FPS as well. However some people get 250 FPS on LotC.

Should've gone for a better GPU and less RAM. Don't need 16GB.

Space, here's a link to a page that compares your GPU to mine. It's a little worse according to this comparison, but I run with shaders at 60 FPS. Are your drivers up to date?

Up to day(te). Java is up to date as well.

Okay, first thing go to your control panel and check your global graphics card settings. If you have vertical sync on there, turning it off in minecraft will make no difference.

It is off.

[Katherine1 362]

Did that affect your FPS in game?

 

What are your video settings for Minecraft like?

[Neri 3590]

Get optifine, change chunk loading to multi-core, disable threaded optimization on your GPU's settings. Before that I got around 60, now I get over 600ish if I don't cap it.

It's the same. I set my settings to lowest possible, put render distance lowest, allocated 4 gb of RAM to MC, and still only get 50 FPS. I put it best I could, and got 50 fps. With shaders I get like 30 FPS after everything is loaded.

Got optifine, got chunk loading, and dunno how to disable that ****. I have a AMD graphics card, so would it be in AMD Catalyst Control Center? Google isn't helping.

 

EDIT: With other games I'm gettinge max FPS always, basically. Haven't tryed any extremely new games, but ArmA 2 ultra I get 60 FPS easy.

[Katherine1 362]

The fact that you seem to max out at 50fps sounds like vsync to me. If you can't get a better framerate than 50-60fps no matter how low the settings, that's definitely vsync.

As for shaders, /I/ take a hit down to around 20fps, and I'm on a GeForce 880m (plus maxed out settings and a 128x128 texture pack)

http://gyazo.com/fe38eca0b50afc3fa2dd7e299e3ab819 That's the v-sync, I believe. Those are the correct settings? AMD is confusing as ****.

 

EDIT- Wait, I messed around with those settings and am now getting 130+. Thanks for the help.

[Katherine1 362]

Well, tripple buffering is good to leave on, but the other is vsync. So yeah, you got that turned off. Hmm...

Moved to the Great Library. It shall be sorted into appropriate category shortly.
