Revision as of 21:07, 20 October 2014

This article is about users' measurements of performance using Minecraft computer version 1.8 and newer on various hardware and software configurations. For the game requirements, see Hardware requirements. For the performance of the Pocket Edition, see Pocket Edition hardware performance. For the in-game bugs and issues of Minecraft computer edition, see the issue tracker|Issues/notice|the issue tracker.

Java Edition hardware performance/nav

Instructions

Software requirements

  • Latest graphics drivers
  • Java
    • Using the most up-to-date version of Java is recommended (1.8 Update 20 as of August 21, 2014), (1.7 Update 67 as of July 29, 2014)
    • 64-bit OS users: It is highly recommended to install a 64-bit version of Java.
      • The launcher will prefer to use Java 64-bit even if Java 32-bit is installed.
  • Minecraft launcher or newer
    • Launcher will update itself automatically each start-up if an internet connection is available (You may need to open your launcher twice for the new versions to take effect.)
    • To update the launcher manually, download it here
    • Entries which use third-party launchers, such as Magic Launcher, will be removed!
  • Minecraft or newer. (Snapshots and pre-releases when applicable).
    • Entries for previous versions will be removed! Update accordingly.

Conditions for testing

Read before continuing forward!

DO NOT USE MODS. This includes OptiFine and FpsPlus, and Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders),

  • (Optional) You can use OptiFine, FpsPlus and SEUS after the initial test and make a note of your FPS in your comment section,

Follow the template in its entirety when creating your entry. The less we correct, the easier it is on us!

Recommended for best frame rate accuracy:

  • Close any unnecessary background applications (These may be using up CPU and/or GPU resources while you are benchmarking),
  • Set your laptop LCD screen, or monitor, to its native resolution,
    • Laptop users: Benchmark using the internal LCD screen first, then secondary in another entry should you have one,

Doing these steps provides better results for owners of similar or same hardware to compare against.

To contribute to this list, you must use the following options/settings in both the Minecraft Launcher and in Minecraft itself.

Launcher Setup In-game Options
  • Choose New Profile, and use the settings provided below:

File:Profile info 1.8.png
NOTE: Enable "snapshots" if you wish to benchmark them.

  • FOV - Leave this at Normal
  • Video Settings - Use the settings provided below:

File:14w30c video settings.png
NOTE: Max Framerate: Unlimited and Use VSync: OFF allow for highest framerate possible.

  • Resource Packs - Select only the Default resource pack.
    • Do not use any other resource packs as this may incur performance variations.

Testing Method

  • Create New World
    • World Name: "Hardware Performance Test" (Without quotes)
    • Game Mode: Survival, Creative if you don't want hostile mobs to bother you (Please don't use commands or fly if you choose Creative).
    • More World Options
      • Seed for the World Generator: "Hardware Performance Test" (Without quotes)
      • Generate Structures: ON
      • World Type: Default
      • Allow Cheats: OFF
      • Bonus Chest: OFF
  • Once in the Test world...
    • Press F3 to display the debug screen.
    • Go to and stand at coordinates XYZ: 276.5xx / 82.00000 / 180.5xx. (Displayed on the seventh line from the top)
      • Looks in all directions to load all visible chunks until the chunk updates value drops to zero or a low, consistent value.
  • To gather FPS results:
    • Walk around in a small circle (about 10-15 blocks in all directions - counting from the center of a circle), while looking ahead.
      • Do Not look straight up or down while obtaining the frame rate. Looking both upwards and downwards causes objects that are out of view, mainly objects on the horizontal plane, not to be rendered which increases FPS. This skews the results.
    • Get the minimum and maximum frame rates for the default window size (854×480), maximized to fill screen (your native screen resolution), and in fullscreen. To change to fullscreen, press F11 (OS X FN + F11).
      • (Optional, but recommended:) Use Fraps benchmarking feature to collect frame rate results. (Using the debug screen lowers in-game FPS, therefore making results less accurate.)
      • Capture frame rate to the tens place for large numbers (FPS results such as 200-100 are inaccurate whereas 250-150 are a more accurate representation.)
