FPS In Modded Minecraft

[kas110]

This something that baffles me completely, in modded minecraft (FTB / Resonant Rise 3 / VERY large packs) The yogscast and other youtubers manage to record it 60+ FPS with a custom resource pack, how? For comparrison i will give my specs and the yogscast's.

My Rig:
i7 5820k (Overclocked to 4.2Ghz)
R9 390 MSI 8GB
16GB Corsair Vengance (4x4gb) 2666mhz DDR4
MSI Gaming 7 X99A

Yogs (From Chillblast):
i7 5820k (Overclocked to 4.2Ghz)
GTX 980TI 6GB
32GB Crucial DDR4 2133mhz
Asus X99A

So the Yogs rig is a bit more powerful, but not significantly (GPU being the biggest jump)
And yet I cant get 60+ FPS WITHOUT recording, never mind while recording with fraps?, how do they manage it?

Is just the difference in RAM / GPU? I wouldn't of thought it to make much difference, it being Minecraft and all...

Is there something up with my settings?

Thanks.

It's possible they are using an external recording device. My BenQ monitors have a HDMI output that duplicates the input signal which again could go to a capture device.

hmm, possibly, but still does not explain my FPS when NOT recording, recently tried a smaller pack that the yogs have played (Sky Factory) and their FPS is around 400!, mine is better than normal (on single player) with around 100 FPS (with the vanilla resource pack, and all settings to low) I should mention, with the Resonant Rise 3 (with 30/40 FPS) , i am joining a server I run off a separate office computer, with very mild specs (4GB RAM) etc, but my FPS in single player is around 60.

But all of this doesn't explain how the yogs have such damn high FPS, even with a slightly better rig a 300 FPS difference? (while recording as well)
(Sorry for the long posts, just really confused on how their FPS is so high?)

Well, I'm a firm believer that Youtube videos are mostly lies. They never tell the whole story. Many record at lower resolutions for smaller video files. It's been a while since I've messed with Minecraft. Have you messed with any video settings? Resolution? VSYNC? Java versions?

You can always try and allocate more RAM for Minecraft.
