Just Inquiring.. by zdq July 27, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

How much money would I have to pay to get a PC that would get me around 80+ FPS?
EDIT: I'm really sorry for not explaining this, just to make sure, when I say I want around 80 FPS, I mean 80 FPS on a 40 player Nebula rather than just on a 1v1. Sorry for not explaining this. ;3

How much do you have?

JOHN_CENAAAAAAAA July 27, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

That depends on what Mods you have, what other/how many programs you are running, and your settings.  Please specify if possible.

_BillGates July 27, 2014 at 6:07 PM UTC

I have a PC, it costed around 12.000 Dolars, 5.000 Reais (Brasil currency), it haves 300 FPS with Vsync Off and I have a load (100+) of programs

zdq July 27, 2014 at 6:07 PM UTC

@S3M3L I'm just inquiring at the minute. ;P
@Sulorak Just Optifine and completely low settings apart from Potion particles: On, Particles: All and Items Animated: On. Oh, and only minecraft running. My laptop is really bad so I rarely play and I play on the least settings, most tweaks and get around 30 FPS Dx But I still like my particles on because it only makes a 5 FPS difference. Specific enough? x)
@Samir I'm just inquiring but 12,000 will definitely not be in my budget ;) But thanks ^-^

JOHN_CENAAAAAAAA July 27, 2014 at 6:07 PM UTC

Okay, and lastly, what kind of monitor do you have?

zdq July 27, 2014 at 7:07 PM UTC

I have a laptop atm :P So if I did get a gaming PC, I'd need to get a monitor. Does the monitor make a difference?

Over kill much? I got a $300 pc and it gets that eZ

You get 300 fps? How come in your vids, you play with particles off and it looks kinda laggy, well not laggy but not like 300 fps..

Depending on the size and the resolution of the monitor you will get more or less FPS. This is because the the Graphic Card needs to work more to have every section of the screen working fine at the same time.

ShiptheBattle July 27, 2014 at 8:07 PM UTC

Mine gives out 60-120 fps depending on my settings, and it can prob go further. It cost like 400 dollars. Depending on your internet and where you buy it... 80 fps costs 400-600$.

QFrog July 27, 2014 at 8:07 PM UTC

Your best option will be to build a computer, pretty cheap and can get great GPS if you get the right parts

Splades July 27, 2014 at 9:07 PM UTC

As QFrog said I recommend building a pc. It will save you lots of money and it will be effective. My cousin built a computer in 2007 and he still manages to get 60fps off that computer because he keeps his parts updated.

JOHN_CENAAAAAAAA July 27, 2014 at 10:07 PM UTC

If you have a 720p monitor, which is common for many laptops and cheaper monitors, you could get a good 100+ fps for about $600-700.  If you use 1080p monitors, which are higher quality, then you will need something along the lines of $800+.

If you don't know your resolution, tell me the name of the monitor, and I can find out for you.

zdq July 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

I have a laptop atm so if I do get a new pc are you saying a smaller monitor is better?

zdq July 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

On the internet, people say that the human eye can't see the difference between 40fps and 150fps and stuff around that, but trust me, I can. ._.

Emmaye July 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

I have a decent Laptop, I set my priority of my PC Processor to minecraft, boosting my frames by 40-60, which now I get averaged 40-120 Frames instead 20-70

TheMasterClock July 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

I have a HP Laptop. Not the best but if there are not much data on it. It can go up to 120-180 FPS with little bit of files and data. But it is pretty expensive doe. My laptop is 800$. I might recommend you to save your money on something else cheaper.

Porkyyy July 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

I have a Samsung laptop, it cost around $700 and it gives me 45-200 fps depending on what I am doing in Minecraft.

Yeah, those people are just people who play on consoles who are known as "Console Peasants". Their consoles can't get past 30 FPS, so they say you can't see beyond 30 FPS, either, to make up for their poor performance. The human ye can see up to 120 FPS, although there isn't that big of a difference between that and 80 FPS. 
Anyways, I bought a pre-build computer that can max out settings and still get a good 150 FPS. It's only 650$, too; it's the best you can get for the price.

JOHN_CENAAAAAAAA July 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

A smaller monitor doesn't mean it's better, really.  It's the resolution.  What's your laptop model?

_BillGates July 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM UTC

Nostalgicular, Its Brazil, everything here is extremily expensive but I'm rich hueheuehueheueheueheu

Sorry for the late reply, I haven't had internet these past few days ._.
Anyways, I have a Samsung 300E5A. With Razer, Optifine and a few RAM tweaks, I get about 50 FPS in a 1v1 ._. So in Avicus I get about 15 - 20.

5000 reais is about $2200
I'm currently here in brazil on vacation, and I'm shocked at the price of electronics and other things.

ViolentBoo August 1, 2014 at 12:08 PM UTC

about 450$

nocapsnonumbers August 1, 2014 at 12:08 PM UTC

How about a PC that would get 60 FPS?

Porkyyy August 1, 2014 at 12:08 PM UTC

Probably around $500-$700.

I'd try to find someone who's knowledgable on computers, but I can tell you that you should get a strong motherboard and graphics card to get what you're looking for, so build your pc

Nice FPS :) 
Oh, and sorry about earlier... I was tired so I got mad easily ;/

Thank you* What are you even thanking me for? xDDDD
EDIT: Lol ok I didn't know who you meant by 'Violent'

No need to buy a new computer, that's quite expensive.

Go to BestBuy and ask for a graphics card that can run Minecraft. They'll take you right to it, and show you that some are around 250$ (USD) Or some could be around 40$ (USD) I reccommend getting the 40$ one to start.

Afterwards ask where they have their RAM. You can purchase RAM on average of 40 dollars as well, which should increase your FPS significantly if you buy both the graphics card and the RAM along with it, for one of the cheapest prices out there.

Hope this helped.

I know a guy. His name is ViolentBoo.

Ooh, you don't need a monitor if you have a spare TV lying around. I just got a 10$ HDMI cable and plugged my PC into the TV. You might have to adjust your native resolution first (it's really easy), but it works fine with no problems :D

FadedEcho August 1, 2014 at 9:08 PM UTC

You can build yourself a decent desktop for $1300 tops. Maybe even 1000. You'll probably get what your looking for if you pick the right parts

xStraidNoxotx August 1, 2014 at 10:08 PM UTC

Realmente lo que importa para que valla bien minecraft es :
1.- La RAM
2.- Tarjeta gráfica
3.- Y GM en tu disco duro

Y ya no hay más historias, ademas que si solo tienes 60 FPS esta bien, y el PING que tengas también es importante, cuanto menos PING tengas mejor iras en los juegos.

How much FPS would that PC get?

Mepanda2 August 2, 2014 at 12:08 PM UTC

You can't determine FPS through specs, however you can always search the model type and see a video of how smoothly it runs and they should show you on what settings they are running on and what FPS they usually get!
