hey dan, i got some reccommendations for you. you should try and maybe install a lightweight distro of linux on the laptop. or if you dont want to do so, switch to another client as feather actually decreases performance while in gameplay. when you start the game, you should go to task manager and search for minecrafts process in the details section. after locating that, right click on the process, then go to priority, then click on realtime. what it does is locate more of the resources to minecraft than usual. also, try to use a video capture card and stop using obs. obs usually takes away most, if not all the performance you could be getting in minecraft. you should also use 8x8 packs as they also help.

[@zeenxdownz]

he is using a capture card

[@Novessian]

8 by 8 packs actually help very minimally since that’s a storage medium bottle neck and not a cpu or gpu related performance upgrade

[@fr.fateen]

@@Novessian 8x8 packs should help in really low end pcs because i tried it out in 3 types of pc myself..

[@hyperkun]

yeah, the performance and everything would be so much better on anything else than Windows lol

[@block_head_steve240]

You should try getting a Linux distro since it has way less overhead than windows

[@holcastgaming1099]

You must try to use modpacks such as Simple Optimised to get the most FPS in 1.20.4

[@NooneNone-v7e]

Fabulously optimized with nvidum if you have a nivdia gpu goes crazy

[@faosx3496]

You forgot one crusial step in boosting your performance: install Linux.

[@shringe9769]

That should be step one

[@clammylammb]

same . when my laptop is plugin my minecraft fps is like 120+ but when unplug fps is 60 stable

[@Official-NekoshinoSakurai]

This is because laptops often optimize battery usage once the laptop is unplugged, therefore the laptop intentionally gives VSync cap, but there are workarounds for this but it's not recommended.

Feather is better for lower amounts of ram and 3rd-8th gen CPUs. I went from 8gb of ddr3 on 200 fps with a i7 4th gen, to 24gb of ddr3 on same CPU about 100 fps.

[@DOTMEN]

My laptop has a core i5-3380M (almost equal to i3-4000M) and I get almost 200 fps by just using sodium and by lowering the setting on latest Minecraft

yo the last video i watched literally 1 year ago because I thought you quit KZbin, so sorry, but looks like you're back! (if you're back I don't know if you even quit), I will watch your new videos again now!

[@luislebronaponte2737]

So, for those of you who are curious, any fps above the laptop display refresh rate is unnecessary. This means that, after optimizing it as much as possible, you can then tweak the settings however you want until you can play at an avg. of what your display refresh rate is or on the other hand, you can turn on vsync in the options menu for minecraft and have the fps max set to the display refresh rate. Either way, you do you.

[@truliny-xyz]

Hey Notro, the video you made on the best gaming os(which was Nobara OS) has some download issues if you are not from an asian country. I would love to see you using the Fedora distrobution however it's basically the same. Nobara's been updated to the latest version of Fedora and has many more fixes though, another good video idea would be to test all the operating systems on the 20$ laptop which are different in a sort of way and advise us if they can be used for a lower performance laptop too. Hope you see this, I don't really think it is the best idea but you could think about it?

[@RAFI-fx6vx]

maybe try bazzite if you are having problems with nobara

[@l_aggy]

I have an old x250 and 1.20.4 with simply optimized is infinitely better than 1.8.9 so im using that. Also your cpu render ahead limit was quite low and keeping it on 5-6 is normally better so that's probably why you werent getting many frames.

[@BytePix_]

Close the screen recording app to get more fps. Screen recorders like OBS makes minecraft run slower (less fps) because it's also using resources minecraft could be using.

[@NotroDan]

I am using a Elgato capture card to capture the screen, no recording software even installed or running :D

[@Jessycakeboy]

@@NotroDan what capture card do you have, I have an elgato hd60x

[@ayush-231]

Had a laptop with i3 3110m and with fabric and mods like sodium I easily get 60+ fps but compromise with 2 chucks :(, don't lie but with upgraded ram and ssd it will last long than any ultra budget comes in today ,for surfering net and low intensive task.

[@ただのオタクだ]

Had? like you don't use that laptop anymore? Cause there are a couple things left out from the video which would improve the performance even more. If you are interested that is.

[@idk13212]

I have some performance mods use Linux with vulkanmod just in case the gpu doesn't support it inside of windows it make a gt 1030 go from 60 - 100 to 400 - 500 16 chunks both you should really try it

[@RKNidinahui666]

тут нет вулкана так что Vulkanmod не прокатит а хотя подождите он только под Linux поддерживает, да хорошая идея, я так несколько ноутов ожил и тут тем более intel у которого Opengl станет 4.6 и вулкан 1.1

[@idk13212]

It depends on your gpu the minimum gpu is the ivy bridge mobile processor on linux but if you have a new gpu like maybe an rx 570 then u could use it without linux@@RKNidinahui666

Atlas 0.4.0 is now out

[@Aaron_Hannan]

I tuned my CPU so much it was @2.4GHz now at 1% it runs at 3.35GHz - 4.02GHz.

[@ThomasYT1]

Actually i found a trick in new versions. If you have one good laptop( like a 4070 or 3060 laptop) and make a world on that good laptop and then join on the fheap or old laptop your fps is much better like 50 to 200% from my testings

[@temanor]

I think you would be better of with fabulously optimized than just throwing together a bunch of mods. A lot of mods are incompatible or do the same thing. Some might even make the experience worse. Using a modpack which has been tested, and is made to get the best performance possible would probably be a better choice.

[@luislebronaponte2737]

For all of those of you in the comment that did not ask, this is basically how I have to try and optimize a macbook pro from 2019. But in my case, since it's a macbook, it doesn't have settings to optimize the laptop for performance and I don't think it has bloatware... bc it's a macbook. So, I just have to download mods and pray that the performance improves. I can play at max render distance with an avg. Fps of around 50, I believe. But I also think that some of the performance optimization mods are fighting against one another somehow, so I gotta do some testing of my own to see what is the best combination that improves my fps the best.

[@cavemenEdits]

2:00 I'm literally watching this on that laptop (hp envy x360)

[@Tuaigo]

Wow that's crazy! Could you do a tutorial on how to get more FPS on minecraft?

[@PiotrBarcz]

No tutorial needed, here's the easiest way: Install Fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1 Download the following mods: Sodium, Lithium, Iris, FerriteCore, C2ME, Noisium, (and if you have an Nvidia GPU from 2019 or newer, like an Nvidia GTX 1660) Nvidium and then run the game. You should be able to double your FPS.

[@Ad1y4n]

This is my new favourite channel

[@ThePurpleIsh]

Dan, you should try to upgrade the cpu to something like a Core i7-4910MQ it's a fairly cheap cpu for like ~50$ and it's also a PGA 946 socket so it should fit in it can also be found on ebay easily i hope you could try this and show us the performance of it❤❤❤

[@GoldDominik893]
