I have a 750TI but Minecraft with the mods I use only gets 30FPS with dips to 0 at times, what options do I have?

[RepoDraghon]

Is another 750TI going to help in SLI? should I just invest is something else? I'm under the assumption that it's the card and not the system that is the bottleneck. I also am in the current with World of Warships but the 750TI says that every setting should be maxed for best performance but I have it all on Medium for a smoother play...

My current build is mostly this:

I was thinking of going full AMD with a Radeon but what one would give me at least 120FPS using a heavy Resource pack called Chroma Hills and a Shader Pack called SEUS.

You can't sli a gtx 750 ti, mods are cpu intensive, your cpu is definitely limiting you. You would need to upgrade to an i3 to get good performance

dropping to 0 fps is usually a sign of something overheating


are you monitoring cpu temps?


amd cpu's are mediocre in online games, because they have weak per core performance, and most games only use 1 - 2 cores

 

[DustinV]

Minecraft uses 1 core, so Amd cpu's are useless as their single core performance is terrible

Ok, well this 750ti I can SLI, came with a bridge and everything. I thought fps was a gpu thing not a xpu thing... well I'm stuck with the AMD for now so what amd cpu is best with the board I have? Or is there an Intel for this mobo? This build was only supposed to be a cheap build to sustain me cause my Dell XPS 420 was crap for nearly every game I have. I picked this cpu cause of the speed it had, which was nearly the fastest one so I don't understand how it is the limiting factor... I can Overclock ot but I dont know what are the best oc settings for it. Also, my temps never exceed 65°c cause I'm using the old cpu fan from the dell mentioned above and it is like a jet engine, and I fuel jets so I know what one sounds like... I also have 3 other case fans running, all 120mm.

upgrading to another amd cpu is a waste of money, only upgrade i would do is to an i3, as adding more cores wont increase your performance

And WTF? a 750 ti that can sli?

 

[RepoDraghon]

Ok, sorry, I just looked at it on pcpartpicker and no sli, you're right, I assumed it would cause it came with a bridge. So the question is, is there an Intel that fits the mobo I have?

No, you would have to get an intel cpu, and a new motherboard. I wouldnt upgrade to a different amd cpu as it will just add more cores, and a very small single core performance increase.
It costs the same and will perform better to swap to intel

This is the amd cpu you could upgrade to - FX 8350 $160

Look at the Single core performance between the two here
http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i3-4170-vs-AMD-FX-8350

YES the intel is still $5 cheaper with a motherboard included, and will perform way better
I highly highly recommend getting this if you want your minecraft performance to increase.

If you have a micro store near you, this intel cpu is only $99.99 !!!!! HOLY SAVINGS

Ok, I was reading up on the games I play, in particular MineCraft. I had it backwards, I thought it was gpu intensive but it's actually cpu intensive.........

 

[DustinV]

wouldn't be cpu intensive if they made it use more than one core lol
