Well I've got a low end computer and when I say low end I mean it. I know I shouldn't be getting very many FPS in Minecraft, and I don't. I'm still curios though, is there any way I can boost my FPS? I've tried optifine and messing with all in-game settings such as render distance ECT.
Lenovo ThinkPad
Specs:
Processor: AMD E-300 APU 1.3 GHz
Graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 6310 Graphics
RAM: 4098MB
Operating type: Windows 7 Homes Premium 64-bit

***I've never posted my specs and I'm not sure if these are the correct ones, also what computer component in my case would increase FPS? RAM? A new video card? Thanks in advance!

im not a genius of any sort with gigahert processors or whatever, but have you ever tried mods? if not, there simple.

Just get Magic Launcher 1.0.0 ( a launcher for MC), then download optifine mod and fps++ mod.

To get Magic Laucher and Optifine mod, just search them in Google and look for the minecraft forums post. ( Dont try to look it up straight from minecraftforums.net, you wont find it. its hell.)

For fps++ do the following steps
1. go to minecraftwiki.net
2. search Frame Rate
3. Go to table of contents and click Third Party methods
4. the link to fps++ should be there.

Save all your mods to your .minecraft folder*******

To insert the mods into Magic Launcher, use the following method.
1. Go to Setup
2. Next to the Internal Mods column there should be a button that says Add, click it.
3. click your mod from your .minecraft folder
4. next to the mod name on the right it should say OK, if not I cant help ya, it should ---///work.
5. repeat for the other mod.

I hope I was helpful to get your fps up!!!!

Optifine is usually an FPS-booster/stabilizer. I used to use it when my Macbook ran 10 FPS on average; it really helped keep a steady, high FPS.

What IS your Fps? No matter how good your machine may be, it may have viruses that will cause it to slow down. My usual FPS is 3-50. I'm used to an average of 15 fps. 98 was the highest I've ever gotten.

Maybe its Because u got only 1.3 GHZ?? That's kinda not enough to run minecraft you will need atleast 2.0GHZ i think.

thinkpad + minecraft o.0

I mean I'm running the latest and best version of the APU series, the AMD APU 5800k with 3.8-4.2 GHz with integrated graphics of Radeon HD 7760. Pretty powerful when that 's all in the CPU alone. Does your older APU have integrate graphics as well? I would assume it has an FM1 socket motherboard, but if it has an FM2 you can definitely get it running with a better AMD APU CPU. You could also try to install more laptop RAM.

Maybe use a script to start Minecraft with more memory?

Hope this helps.

Try allocating more memory to minecraft: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dntBT83jCzk. If it works for you please sub to my channel on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/EpicfederationHQ?feature=mhee.

Did you allocate all of your memory? You should have only allocated up to half of your total memory.
