$8 CPU Vs Minecraft!

I Bought an $8 CPU to find out one thing. Can it run Minecraft? I almost got scammed, almost cried, but something very unexpected happened..

Intel Xeons aren’t scams they’re just very cheap because they mass produced them back when everybody wanted them and nobody wants them now. They’re typically use in workstations and they’re so cheap because offices and etc clear them out to get new ones all in one go. They also make pretty decent budget gaming pcs if you can find a decently newer version of one. Btw they’re also server cpus. Edit: thank you guys I never got so many likes before!

the reason why lunar client got 1000 fps was bc it was mainly running off the gpu, which is like miles better than the cpu

[@daviblock]

wtf no? lunar got 1000 fps for 2 seconds and it was while the chunks were loaded, it doesn't lag because default minecraft is really unoptimized and lunar uses i guess some performance mods/addons to the client that make it run better and make faster math

[@luigiistcrazy]

Minecrafts code isn't made to be run on the GPU. You can mod the shit out the game but the backend of the game is designed to be handled by the CPU. You would have to completely rewrite Minecrafts code (And not in Java to begin with) so it can hand all the complex calculations like Chunk gen, Mob AI, etc. to the GPU instead of the CPU. While Minecraft sort of supports Multithreading for chunk gen, it's somewhat experimental because it increases the chance to generate faulty chunks. Modern GPUs have thousands of cores and great Performance when these cores work together but not when working alone. GPUs have horrible single core performance and you can generate a single chunk on a single thread. Chunk gen speed would be horrendous when running on the GPU. Minecraft would have to implement a system that allows the game to generate a chunk on multiple cores at the same time but this would probably be highly complex and just not worth it. The GPU is only used for things like lightning, shadows, particles, vertex shader, Tangent Vectors, rendering triangulated polyhedras etc.

[@ItsHonski]

Could you tell me a few main things to improve on? I want to improve lol

[@ItsHonski]

@@Guiny Wow I didn’t expect you to respond! Im glad that you look to improve and learn more about tech, and i admire you for that. Not many people are willing to learn, but im happy that you do. I don’t have much time to tell you everything, but i think the primary issue with your testing is the mods used, as well as the balance between the components. Vanilla minecraft is incredibly CPU-heavy, which is why you saw poor performance with the Xeon. However Fabric and Optifine are primarily GPU-heavy, which is why you saw a major performance improvement when running Lunar Client. The other thing to consider is that Xeon’s will naturally perform worse in minecraft when compared to the desktop consumer segment chips from the same era due to lower clock speeds and slower single thread performance. This is primarily due to workstation tasks needing more cores and not faster cores. But overall, i think this is just more of an issue on my part, as I personally look forwards to the analytical parts of tech videos like this. Maybe it’s because i’m just a computer nerd, but keep up the good work.

Minecraft Bedrock has worked so well because it's more of a GPU based game.

[@luigiistcrazy]

Wrong. Bedrock is written in C++ which is way faster than Java. Bedrock and Java are barely different in the way they handle API calls. Where in a system everything is handled is the same. Chunk generation, mob AI and whatever is still running on the CPU while stuff like lightning, shadows, particles, vertex shader, Tangent Vectors, rendering triangulated polyhedras etc. is still handled by the GPU.

[@juniuwu]

@@luigiistcrazy Bedrock is not "way faster than Java" because it's written in C++, it's faster (though even this is debatable) because Minecraft Java Edition is the codebase equivalent of a festering garbage tip.

Playing Minecraft Java 1.8.8 with my trusty CMClient on this old Intel Celeron 900 2.19GHz CPU is always an adventure. Can you believe I still manage to keep up a decent 60-100 FPS on my ancient Windows 7 32-bit, 3GB RAM, single-core setup? Crazy, right? Though, my CPU usage hitting 100% most of the time is a bit of a hassle. I've watched so many optimization videos on KZbin. I remember that day when I installed Minecraft and I got 5-10 FPS-my laptop even crashed and got the blue screen. I got this laptop when I was 14 years old on February 1st, 2023, and now it's February 22nd, 2024, so it's been a year since I've had this laptop. This laptop has a heating problem, and I bought a cooling pad with the money I saved, but it still heats up. This laptop? It's like a treasure passed down from my dad. It's been with us for 11 years now. Sure, it's ancient, but it's my lifeline. I'm from middle class family, so an upgrade isn't happening anytime soon. But you know what? I'm grateful for what I have. By the way, I'm 15 years old. This laptop isn't for gaming. It's for doing work only. I make and edit videos for my channel. Your videos have been a constant source of joy on this aging machine. A little heart in the comments would truly make my day :) EDIT : It's worse now i can't even play minecraft so, I'm leaving it :) and now it's summer so my laptop is going to heat more lol but yk this laptop is my lifeline

[@Guiny]

Dude you are amazing! Congrats on making it work so well!!

[@Fizytaze]

Bruh just buy a used pc they are dirt cheap now days

[@TimeWarpMusicVibes]

Absolutely, I'm beyond grateful! It's been a whirlwind tinkering with this trusty old laptop, but I'm thrilled it's still going strong. Although, I must admit, it's not always smooth sailing, especially with the heating issues causing my Minecraft FPS to drop. Nonetheless, your videos have been my constant source of inspiration and guidance along the way. Keep up the amazing work, you're truly the best! @@Guiny

[@PerpendicularFlight5]

The reason MC works so good even with such a trash CPU is because CPU isn't the only resource the MC uses. Others like GPU, RAM and Cache also play a major role in the performance. CPU's resources are used to process the world and loading/unloading the chunks. GPU is the real component responsible for the graphics, so standing still gives you a huge FPS boost because you aren't putting any load on the cheap CPU, but instead the resources are beings used from the expensive GPU.
