How Much FPS On Minecraft Would This Computer Get

Solution
Jokes aside, it's quite painful to look at these prebuilt systems when you see their pricetag, here's an example of what you can get with the same money:

I know right need like an i7 extreme with a 4 way 780ti setup liquid nitrogen cooling and your cpu overclocked to 8.0 GHZ and 64gb RAM and even that beast only gets like 10 FPS, MC is such a hard core game.

That, is sarcasm at its finest
 


Totally. I mean, even China's Milky Way-2 super computer can probably post a safe 5-10 fps on Minecraft. It's like, why develop a game when you need a dedicated server room to run it reasonably? Am I right? No wonder Minecraft servers only have 2 people in them.
