Hi everyone, I was just wondering how many FPS a gtx 680 would get in minecraft.
Thank you.

680+Good CPU+4GB-8GB RAM+Minecraft=a lot of fps.
A GPU alone can't run minecraft. You need a monitor, a cpu, ram, hdd or sdd (preferably HDD or both), psu, etc

Because Minecraft demands more on your CPU then your GPU.
What CPU do you have.
a 2600k with 16gb of ram

He was talking about antvenom, and it's presumably for video editing, although yes, it was a waste of money.
Antvenom doesn't edit ****.
Those little 2 second cuts and moving around really doesn't need an i7 processor of any sort.
A pentium can cut and paste and rearrange footage of an 8-bit game

Antvenom needed those specs to win the Survival games.

I don't get why people are upgrading already great configs to LGA 2011. LGA1155, 1156, and especially 1366 are still very capable platforms. People are like ohhh I NEEED quad channel RAM and Pcie 3. I am saying this, first of all, no game even comes close to bottle-necking pcie 2, and (with programs running in the background) no game even puts my 6GB of tri channel ddr3 past 80-85% usage. I have a mechanical drive and am not going to SSD anytime soon until the prices drop. Everyone says that loading into a game first is the best, well guess what, most games have features in place to make sure a majority, if not all players are loaded in before starting the round. The only real benefit from an SSD is boot time, as games do not suck up much data in real time from the storage (that is why content is pre-loaded, hence the load screens). With that being said, I have no problem with my two 1TB WD Caviar Black drives that I bought for less than $100 about 3 years ago (I can't believe HDD prices were that low at one time either xD). No game has ever pushed my Core i7-930 past 30-40% usage. Maybe games like garrys mod and physics intensive games will eat up around 50% capacity; or hosting a game on my computer will also eat up RAM and processor resources, but that is about it.
The single most expensive part I will be getting for my PC will be my video card upgrade. I will be going from a Radeon HD 5770 1GB to a GTX 680 2GB (or a 685 if it comes out early enough). I know that is overkill but I was looking for a card that will last for years to come as I am a college student that will not be doing any more upgrades. I might possibly be getting more memory, but that will be it. Also, I don't just play MC. I play BF3, GTA IV (will be GPU intensive after installing icEnhancer), and many other games.
PS: Any one with even the slightest PC building experience will tell you this "If you keep waiting to build with the best parts, you will never build anything." With that being said, my current config with my 5770 has run WoW at max settings on DX 11, ran Bad company 2 at high settings, and has run BF3 at Med settings all at 1080p while getting at least 40fps.
Antvenom is a ****ing idiot. "look, I have a fairly successful YouTube account and too much money, I'll blow it on a PC with the most expensive parts I can buy". I'll bet $500 that he had best buy or frys or something assemble it for him because he has no idea how to himself.
You'll run it at around a 1,000 frames then, give or take a hundred or so. When you play the game, switch its settings to 'Balanced' so you don't let your GPU run so hot.

:envious drool:
Now you can go too YouTube and brag about your awesome framerates that don't actually make a difference in gameplay...xD
I know Docm77 went with a LGA 2011 cpu too. And he recently got a 680. However, Doc actually stresses Minecraft more than most with his massive amount of structures and villagers. Still overkill, but he needs it more than Antvenom does.

Well, since mc is singlethreaded, I don't think the extra 2 cores will do anything, and when doing intensive things like that, the cpu is still likely the bottleneck, so the 680 is a bit overkill.
It'd be best to get a sandy bridge cpu and oc it.
Although, antvenom did say that the i7-3960wasteofmoney does render videos pretty fast, which is useful for people making videos.

Docm77 plays quite a few other games besides Minecraft, and he does a lot of editing. I'd say he earned his 3960x and 680 superclocked.
Thank you.

What CPU do you have.

Since no one buys the gtx 680 to only play MC
Edit: Antvenom did, nvm

However 60FPS is all you need really, just wasting energy and making more heat when you don't vsync.
I continue wondering why he has a ****ing 3960X... Does he realize how overkill that is? A 2600K would do fine...
His post says he has a 2600K... Did he edit it?

He bought 2 as a matter of fact.
