low fps on pretty pc

hey, i have 4060 8GB, Ryzen 5 5600, 16GB RAM, everything on SSD. Played BetterMC + Complementary on 1650 and got ~60 fps avg, switched on 4060 and still getting ~60 fps. Tried to build a new modpack like vanilla, installed complementary and having poor fps. setted minecraft to get 7-9 GB Ram, still having poor fps... Dunno what's wrong so please help.

What resolution are you running at? 60 fps is perfectly reasonable What's probably happening is you have a CPU bottleneck and the GPU isn't getting enough frames sent to it Are both CPU and GPU being fully utilized?

FullHD 144hz, GPU 40%. Without shaders on 20 chunks getting 80 fps, thats so strange. Yea i have bottlneck on CPU, but it's like 10-12% not a lot for minecraft being laggy
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
You got that number from a bottleneck calculator? Because that won't apply to Minecraft

emptyOP•3mo ago
So how do i check it in mc?
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Open task manager while the game is running If you're seeing the CPU pegged to 100 and the GPU is sitting at 40 then your CPU isn't keeping up Lower the thread count that Distant Horizons uses to 8 and that should fix it

MC eating like 60% of cpu and 36% of gpu without shaders
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Yeah that's about right with shaders the GPU should be pegged to 100 percent if the CPU has headroom to work
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
Wait a lil gonna apply Still 60% on CPU and around 60% on gpu with complementary, also how to decrease cpu cores usage in DH?
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Well you don't need to since both components aren't being used right that's weird Lowering DH threads won't do it

emptyOP•3mo ago
that's what im talking ab, minecraft just dont want to eat my whole pc win10 pro 64x
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Yeah that is really weird... You're running full HD. Have you tried to run the shaders at higher graphics and see if you can at least get better quality at 60 fps? OH also you might have the FPS capped in the game 😂 Make sure that's turned off and VSync is also off and see what happens
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
nah, im playing games for 15 years, so instantly turning all of that off more fps = smoother gameplay
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Ok then I'm lost. Heck at least you're getting 60 which is pretty much the expected result.
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
max fm = unlim, vsync off
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Is it stable unwavering 60? Or swinging around from 60 to 50to 70 etc.?
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
Stable 70~ on ULTRA preset... Like nothing changed lol
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Ok well something is capping so I dunno that's really good though
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
also the most strangiest thing is that minecraft with only mods (textures are only GUI) with 20 chunk render distance not getting me like more then 150 fps
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
like if you're not getting stutters with DH on and ultra shaders and what have you then you're good and you also have headroom for running screen recording and whatever else you might want on top of MC
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Try removing Distant Horizons, see what frame rate you get.
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
That's a CPU bottleneck for sure Would turning off the renderer and distant generator effectively do the same thing?
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Nope. Distant Horizons always runs LOD updater in the background.
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Dang
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
Do i need to remove in completely or i can turn off rendering in DH config?
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Remove it completely. If you use a fancy launcher, there's an option to turn it off from the mods list.
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Prism to the rescue

emptyOP•3mo ago
Reloaded into mc without DH, still ~70 fps on ultra complementary OH Well Now getting a lil more - ~90 Is that peak fps i can get from my pc setup?
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Uplift from 70 fps to 90? That's well within margin when Distant Horizons is installed. With that said, how's Task Manager looking?
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
60 percent on both GPU and CPU
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
Around 30% on cpu and 100% on gpu
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Ah there we go that's better
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
let's try lower shader settings
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Okay, that means Distant Horizons is hogging your resources.
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
You generally want the GPU running 100 percent by the way if it ain't running 100 percent it means the game isn't looking as good as it could be
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Well some people experiencing poor utilization with the current release of Distant Horizons. Using a nightly version solves that.
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
@Squire Dot Have you put the latest release into the modpack per chance?
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
Only if i want my game look like real life, i want to get vanilla enchanced experience that i dreamed when i was kid, but still getting smooth gameplay
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
I mean 60 stable is smooth 17 ms frame time nominal and humans can't perceive less than 20 ms
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
They're using the latest from Modrinth, not a nightly, as seen from their image sent prior. :yes: That's the version with poor utilization issue.
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Yeah I know I'm just making sure that our pack didn't get the issue 😂
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
to be clear im very surprised that my pc setup can run very little modpack with based shaders only in 150 fps also with stutters to 110 or 180
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
I mean it might've but no big deal I suppose 1 percent lows being ass and Minecraft are like bread and butter 🤣

I can get 2000 fps at native 4K with my 3060 ti which is funny No shaders of course but if I look at the sky it gets close 😂
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
Also gpu util is crazy - 100% Is there more ways to get more fps or at least stable 150?
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Low graphics quality but the CPU is what dictates the FPS in the end if the CPU can't make enough frames the GPU won't render more frames
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
When shaders are enabled, you get whatever your GPU spits out if it's capped at 100%.
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
indeed and if you lower the settings you're only going to get as much FPS as the CPU can generate before the GPU starts having headroom

emptyOP•3mo ago
Oh, i remembered I capped cpu on 3.4 Ghz So it wont overheat

battery usage or smth like that

What kind of cooler you're using, or what kind of temps you're getting?
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
just a poor fan even not a tower just a fan
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
stock cooler 💀
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
not stock, but still just a fan
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Pretty sure the stock cooler is capable of keeping the temps within reason...
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
im having a mini tower setup
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
:concern:
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
so i have a poor cooling methods
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Not using a stock cooler on the 5600?
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
yea i bought not boxed version
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Good user, my 5600G runs with the stock cooler and it's handling Distant Horizons at max settings like a champ.
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
when bought it tried my cpu in dota, but it was overheating a little (maybe 75 on celcius), so i capped cpu usage on 99% with mmm how to say that eco mode lemme check up yea eco mode
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
75c and you consider that overheating? :ioa:
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
i know that is like WORKING temp but capping in on 99% and cut 1GHz didnt make anything with fps in dota so i thought that will be good lemme try to switch and check temp now soo now im on 4.450 MHz and according to msi afterburner im getting from 130 to 150 with 75c jumping into 78c oh well all 80's
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
if you're under 85 C on the CPU you're fine
empty
emptyOP•3mo ago
oh well i thought like getting above 72c would decrease my cpu lifetime oh, getting into 85c nah lets turn off that
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
CPUs can handle up to 95 C in the end

havin a320m motherboard is a criminally stressing cant tune my cpu at all ty a lot guys, helped me feel that MINECRAFT phase for a few days have a good day!!!!!
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Remember! Don't stress over temps, if it hits 90 under load it's not gonna kill it, CPUs have thermal limits for a reason ;) Enjoy da powah!
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Only CPUs that would have a shorter lifespan when running above 85c are Intel 13th and 14th gen. :linus:
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Not anymore :haha_yes:

Squire Dot•3mo ago
Erm I put 1.21.5 Which is latest ig
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
Gotcha well no problem since there's a nightly with the thing fixed which I suspect it'll come out soon
Squire Dot
Squire Dot•3mo ago
I can't really put nightly builds in modrinth/ curseforge now
hardester
hardester•3mo ago
Ill-advised even.
Squire Dot
Squire Dot•3mo ago
Anyway 1.21.6 is around the corner so whatever fix there is will come to stable
Piotr Barcz
Piotr Barcz•3mo ago
yeah of course not suggesting that but since the nightly exists I suspect it'll be out soon enough to not bother until 1.21.6 I know all to well considering the disaster with people putting unreleased alphas into packs 💀
