how to run minecraft on a bad computer:

1. make it better

[the_talent_tapestri]

Bro had the audacity to call that a $20 laptop after the upgrades

[John-zslm]

“I think our upgrades have made a massive difference here..” crazy almost like upgrading a computer makes it better.

I put a Lamborghini on my $1000 Lamborghini

bro is obsessed with the 20$ price tag

[Jellyfish_edits]

oh yeah get minecraft to run on a potato

[lno_onel]

love that you describe things in a way that is informative to people just starting out with mods but also in a way that doesn't bore people who have been in the community.

I had a friend who had a laptop from 2013 or before. Even though he didn't let me optimize it much, I managed to get it to run at a playable 30-35 fps.

I literally got a similar laptop for personal use, upgraded the ram and a fresh battery and ssd and its honestly pretty good for as much as i invested. Its suprisingly capable despite the age of the hardware

Ps:
If you wanna use 1.12.2/legacy Minecraft versions.
Use legacy fabric, it allows java 21(using cleanroom loader), and lets you use sodium on old versions, making Minecraft run even faster than optifine will ever reach

Reminds me of the bad old days when I used to exclusively play the OG Skyblock in Beta on my Inspiron laptop because that was the only way I could play Minecraft at a decent 30-ish FPS. I got a job in 2013 and you can bet your ass I saved every penny to build a gaming PC.

The most shocking thing in this video to me was the amount of FPS gained going from 8GB to 16GB, especially as you said you didn’t increase Minecraft’s allocated 2GB.

Well done, it’s so great making old hardware that anyone else would consider ewaste, useful and capable.

0:11 kinda nice for 20 dollars I mean my computer from 2011 has a i5 2450m dual core and a 540m, still runs Minecraft at a clean 60fps

[FuriousFire]

I watched your video my luck same day the next one comes out. Pure brilliance

[randomweirdyoutubechannel]

Alot of the improvement from the ram will be the fact you went from single channel to dual channel thus giving more bandwidth to the cpu and igpu

0:35 hardware hardware hardware hardware hardware

[fgamesf]

You should definitely try linux or atlas os on this laptop! BTW what your mic and the stand for the mic?

[pitachok]

how is the laptop worth 20 dollars if you upgrade it?

[Veceptic]

Uploaded on my bday, keep up the good work!

Replaceable CPUs was a very common thing up until about a decade ago. I currently own five or six laptops with replaceable/upgradeable CPUs. 3:01 Obviously they’re very old and I’m pretty sure fifth gen intel killed off socketed laptop CPUs.
