About this video: Optifine is the most popular Minecraft mod ever made, and in this video, we go over the best Optifine settings for Minecraft 1.20.1. The goal of this video is to give you Optifine settings for 1.20.1 that will allow you to get the best of both worlds allowing for both incredible performance while maintaining decent graphics.

That is actually what Optifine 1.20.1 is best at in my opinion - providing good graphics with good performance. So, without anymore delay, here are the Optifine settings you need to be using in 1.20.1!

Before we get into Optifine settings though, you should add more RAM to Minecraft. This can be done by accessing the editing the Optifine Installation, click “Advanced Options” and changing the number in the “-XMX” section. We recommend 4GB of RAM if your PC has enough RAM for it.

From there, open Minecraft. As far as texture packs with Optifine, texture packs will cause more lag. However, the Optifine settings here will let you get the most out of texture packs. If you still have lag after setting up Optifine though, make sure to turn off your resource pack.

From here, navigate to Options, Video Settings. In the general video settings tab, set graphics to fast, render distance to 12, simulation distance to 5, and turn off entity shadows.

It is also important to turn off shaders if you want as much FPS as possible with Optifine. We do have some high-FPS shaders that will work with Optifine 1.20.1 in the description above.

In the quality tab, turn off mipmap levels and emissive textures. Turn on random entities, better snow, custom fonts, colors, sky, and items. Set better grass to fast.

For your Optifine detail settings in 1.20.1, set clouds, vignette, and rain/snow to fast and trees to smart. Turn off fog and biome blend, and leave sky, stars, swamp colors, and alternate blocks on. Turn entity distance to 50%.

Your Optifine performance settings are where you will get the biggest improvement to FPS. Turn on render regions, fast render, smart animations, fast math, smooth fps, smooth world, dynamic updates, and lazy chunk loading. Turn chunk updates to 1 and chunk builder to semi-blocking.

In the animation tab of your Optifine settings for 1.20.1, just click “All Off” this will turn off all of the animations. Feel free to turn specific animations on if you want, but this will hurt performance slightly.

And the rest of the settings not mentioned here are your personal preference and don't really have much if any impact on Minecraft’s performance.

Now, you can jump into Minecraft and know you have the best Optifine settings for 1.20.1. If you have any questions about your Minecraft settings for 1.20.1 with Optifine, let us know in the comments. We will try to help you out.

Bro. I want to thank you for all the information this channel has given me. Helping me run a server, install my first mods. Love your content, nicest, most wholesome advice possible ❤

[beedykh]

You butchered the graphics, narrowed your field of view to the minimum, and then you say the game runs faster? Get out of my sight.

[Thatuser]

got a 4x core i5 with almost 100 mods, game runs smoothly, thx man i apreceate the vid

[Pattzzz]

came back to minecraft after a solid break from the game, my computer was running my world so laggy especially near my redstone builds but this made it 10x better thankyou

[darealboj]

This man has been doing gods work ever since I've known about him. I can't imagine playing Minecraft without him.

[nicolasfells]

the first viedo that really help me to fix my lagspikes thanks a lot :)

[sugaryfloffie]

Nahh thanks bro, you made my day with this, now I can really play with my computer

[dark]

Thank you .

Literally from 30 - barely 70 to 50-60 fps in loades zones, 90-110 fps "soft" zones (BSL shader TAA FAA on) | Ryzen 2600x + 6700xt 16GB ram
im playing a enterly week with awful experience with shaders

[sarus-x]

My PC at home has a worse graphics card than my travel laptop and it can run Minecraft with high-end shaders at max power, but my laptop can't do this. I've already directed Java to use the GPU, updated Java/Drivers and everything, but Minecraft still runs at 10-13 FPS. I can't figure out what's wrong.

I know this isn’t related to this video but i followed you step by step instructions to download and install Forage but everytime I try to install it in the minecraft launcher i get an “Exit code 1”

[Pangerg]

What does the distortion effect option do?

[Yenastuundepaspris]

By 'The best settings', did you meant to write 'the most minimal setting possible' ?
Because, all I can see is you turning everything off or to the lowest setting possible ?

[isaiasc]

My optifine was super bright and then it for some reason got real dark like a regular Minecraft world. It wasn’t with any of these changes I was just hoping to see if I changed something by accident.

[Darkness]

Bro I had 40 fps and now I have 0 after watching this video.
And I don't know how to fix it 😔

[JdwKP]

Thank you bro, I now have over 200 fps, thank you so much😀

[gavinanimates]

Holy crap, on a gaming laptop I reached a whopping 2000 fps.
But hey, quick question, do you know how to uncap fps on fabric and forge?
It always locked at 144 fps and it would never go any higher than that.

[ufool]

I have found this helps with shaders FPS too.

[YourTypicalTweaker]

TIP: MAKE SURE TO STILL CAP YOUR FPS FOR SMOOTHER GAMEPLAY AND LESS LAG SPIKES

[WClap]

what do i do if there are invisible chunks it keeps bugging and making some chunks invisible
