Hello everyone, I have a issue with running the lightest shaders on my laptop even if I set my settings to lowest quality with Optifine rendering 8 chunks and FPS unlimited. I get around 20fps using Kuda shaders - Lite as well as I have 4g ram used when running Minecraft.

My specs are:

Processor: 2,5 GHz Intel Core i5
Ram: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphic card: Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB

Note: I also use no texture pack, so none of that is interfering with my performance.

What can I do to get higher fps? I mean I surely should be able to run at least 30 fps with shaders on my laptop, I'm confused. Have I done something wrong or do I just suck it up and deal with it?

Thanks for taking your time reading this, any input or help is appreciated.

Thank you all for your quick replies!, I didn't expect such fast answers, that's why I'm late to post this. I guess It's time for me to buy an actual gaming Pc and leave this old junk behind. Thank you once again.

Simple answer: Shaders tears apart fps even on the lowest settings. The fact that it is adding peripheral shading physics to a game is simply insane. The best you can do is get optifine which comes with shaders and go into the shaders options and turn down the settings to the lowest on the right. Other than that you cannot use shaders sorry.

Suck it up. Don't think an Intel Graphics 4000 edition is capable of running any shaders. Without shaders you should be fine with the game though

HD 4000 is an old integrated graphics chip. I'm surprised you can manage 20 FPS with an 8-chunk render distance.

TotallyNotMeIt's not a gaming PC or a gaming laptop. Minecraft is very good for ripping apart CPUs.

It'll have no problem running Minecraft. One of my old laptops had HD 4000 (and an Nvidia chip with about the same performance) and at 1366x768 (half of 1080p), I got 50-60 FPS most of the time on medium-high settings.
