That processor is the anniversary edition of the pentium. Decent processor, but definitely not better than what he has chosen. Same with the memory...in this video you have linked, he's got ddr3-1600. It's decent memory and will run the system just fine at stock speeds, but you've got that...

This all depends on the GPU we're talking about. If we're talking about an onboard "gpu" like the OP has in his machine, which is actually just the cpu performing extra work on an already cpu intensive game, then Yes. but If you're referring to a dedicated GPU, this is not true at all. My cpu...

I really don't think minecraft is the problem. It sounds like the OP needs to figure out a lot of things, and work on some issues he may have that he's put on the "back burner" due to his self medication. Low self esteem impacts people far more than they realize. OP, i've been there. Once...

I wouldn't go down to an i3, the quad core will help with your other processes like streaming and such. The ram isn't a bad choice, just that you won't see any benefit if you keep stock settings using that ram over a slower set. The benefit of running a faster set of memory is the ability to...

You could go with slower ram, unless you intend to underclock it and tighten the timings a bit. Personally I wouldn't go AMD. Intels have far better single thread performance. Comparing overall passmark scores doesn't show much difference between the two. $40 saved on the CPU will net you...

out of the box it comes with gnome doesn't it? thankfully it supports KDE. never really was a fan of gnome, for whatever reason.

sounds like bad driver for your NIC? not sure, but that's definitely not right. o_O

there's only way that I know of that a 32 bit OS can utilize more RAM than is physically possible, since you're limited by address 1. install linux. 2. ensure your kernel is PAE enabled. 3. ? 5. Profit E. I believe individual processes are still limited to the 3gb addressing limit. also, even...

Arguments erupt from opinions. Sorry, but in this case we're dealing with fact, and you can't argue with fact.

I believe you should, sir.

Except it's not a necro, it's on topic and contains useful information (in context with the OP). It doesn't say that anywhere in the thread. Give the guy a break, he's a new member just trying to contribute. If the OP isn't looking for more input, let the OP say it. they got the alert...

Look at it from his perspective; People complained that AE1 was far too pervasive. You could have a functioning AE on Day 1. DAY 1. he responded by making the changes he did in AE2, and people had an absolute fit about it. I totally get where he's coming from. It's like, what do you people...

Not at all. In fact, he made a nice post explaining what happened, and why.

There is a big difference between hating on a coder, and hating on code.

I think I'm quite finished with this conversation if you can't grasp what is and is not a hack. I'm setting myself up if I keep going. Edit: Oh, you edited This is exactly what I'm talking about. You admit that you have no idea how it works, but it's not a hack amirite?

No, a mod is a hack because of how it goes about solving a particular problem. in Optifine/Fastcraft case, a few of the functions are hacks, not the entire mod, but enough to make me walk away from it. Look, man. I get it, the mods help your toaster to at least load minecraft...but that...

Because you haven't seen a particular problem does not mean it doesn't exist. and the mods are hacks. How do you think optifine adds multicore chunk generation? It certainly isn't a default option... I'm sure there's some to be gained by using them, I never said otherwise. What I did say...

Yeah bro, you've hit the nail on the head. :rolleyes: I've clearly never tried optifine or fastcraft, and I'm just parroting mdiyo...and every other user that has experienced problems with the hack, er, i mean mod. I'm sorry if you're a fan of these mods, but there are problems with them...

No thanks, I'll take a little extra "lag" over some hack solution that kind of works...sometimes. except when it's causing crashes.

Yes and no. You've accidentally stumbled on one of the most hotly contested debates in the game config world. Vsync is a tricky question/problem due to the sheer amount of misconceptions regarding the way it functions. Basically, the only way you should see a drop in fps if your PC physically...
