What kind of computer do you have, what RAM do you have, and what fps do you get?

Guys, just to let you know there will be no difference in between 8gb or 500gb of ram because minecraft, for what I have seen, only uses 2-3 GB as a max and 487 MB as a min. Ram speed may effect fames but by only a couple.

you can get a core I3 that beats a core I7. The difference is the core I3 has 2 cores a core i5 has 4 and a I7 has 4-6 cores. all of these have hyperthreading thus windows or linux will see them as twice the actual amount.

In minecrat a high end core i3 will have the same speed as a low end to mid core i7 because minecraft will only take 1 core 2 if you include hyperthreading. to fix this just use optifine.

also if you just play minecraft anything above a GeForce GTX 460 or a Redeon 4350 is overkill unless you use glsl shaders.

so a titan with minecraft is like going dear hunting with a tank!

i have 8gb of ram
a core I7 equivalent to a mid range core i3 because i have a laptop
finally a redeon hd 4350

i get 90fps everything maxed out which is more than enough

desktop i5s don't have hyperthreading. laptop i5s are dual core. and a laptop i7 is better than a desktop i3, in both multi core and single core.

I use a Mac Book Pro 2011.

13.3 inch screen
intel core i5
4gb of ram
500gb HD
intel HD graphics 3000 (lol)

I usually get around 45-55 FPS while recording (max FPS, smooth lighting off, render distance 2 chunks) with with Optifine, but its plenty smooth because of the smaller screen. On full screen I average about 100-120 FPS on more reasonable settings. I blame nearly not existent graphics card for my not so smooth gameplay.
