Holy crap I forgot Minecraft can only use single-cores and dual-cores. I'll edit that out my mistake.Quad-core is only useful for things besides minecraft
Quad-core is only useful for things besides minecraft
will this may be true but, you can use multi-core render in optifine and use all of the cores and all of the threads. also mc may only use one core have fun using youtube and minecraft will using a single core cpu.
erm, or how about a dual core... i don't even think there is a single core cpu on the market these days.
@ThatOneSlowking is correct, though. dual/tri/quad/octa core won't help you with minecraft because the underlying code is single threaded, and optifine can't fix that. optifine is basically a hack, and last I heard it's rendering is horrendous in 1.6.

Actually only single coreHoly crap I forgot Minecraft can only use single-cores and dual-cores. I'll edit that out my mistake.
^^ Oh no no no.. That "more than 4GB" remark was for the "system as a whole"
When you allocate 3 out of 4 GB just for minecraft, the OS performance suffers (YMMV), and if you opened a chat application plus a browser window for wikis and videos, it gets more squeezed for space. So, if OP wants to get more RAM, then investing in it might not be a bad idea after all.
^^^^^This.
Most people forget that they need to reserve a least a little ram for the OS to run. IIRC 1.5GB minimum was needed for Vista, with 1GB minimum for Win 7 and Win 8. A good rule of thumb is to leave 2GB untouched or your swapfile may see some extensive use.
As stated, more than 4GB for Java defeats the purpose of garbage collection, as more cpu time must be devoted to processing the internal routines. Also, Java will allow you to allocate all your ram, in effect giving it permission to overwrite even OS allocations.
That depends. With Optifine Ultra it's dual and single.Actually only single core
Most mods such as BoP are incompatible with Optifine. Later today i will allocate less RAM to Minecraft so I won't get those large lag spikes as hambeau said.That depends. With Optifine Ultra it's dual and single.
i have bought my pc for around 210e(shity pc), then i added a radeon 6570 , now i have plan to add more ram so i can play bigger packs like monster.
so that is around 210+55+50(4gb ram)=315euros~ for a pc that could run it pretty good with around 40-50 fps on fancy grapichs with normal render distance.
my current specs:Intel Celeron E3400 ocd 3.2ghz,2GB ram,AMD Radeon 6570 1GB GDDR3 128-bit,hdd 500GB..
It's a mod that a lot of the Minecraft population uses so I would count that as "it depends".
Heh, I'm talking in USD.
Just wait until you start having a billion things running at the same time. I have a 5x5x18 MAC running over 200 machines continuously in my base. Things get... Thingy.
The "feature" that you are referring to is a Hack, though. Also on the tooltip it specifically says local world. it causes more problems than it solves in 86% of cases (inb4 statistics on the internet), and it's not even usable in a SMP environment.
Look man, I know you just got back from a long vacation (as did I) but optifine is not the same wunderbeast it used to be.
i always tend to build less laggy(across several chunks) and i never made a progress like that .
btw:315Euros=432.023$ so it seems that we are talking about same configurations..
