Hi my name is Matthew i have a Nvidia gtx 550 ti video card, 16gbs of ram and 6 core amd processor. i have mine craft and i love it however i can only get 8-15 fps, sucks right. the wierd thing is that games like portal 2 i am running at 100fps+ which is strange compared to mine craft, i was wondering if there was anyone that could advise on what to do, the part that frustrates me the most is i used to get 500+ fps but now squat.
i appreciate any help that can be provided thanks.
Make sure your nVidia card is the one that is rendering Minecraft's graphics.
Right click on the desktop, select nVidia control panel, then select Manage 3D settings. Make sure the preferred graphics processor is set to high-performance nVidia processor.
Though I would recommend turning on VSync either in the graphics control panel or in Minecraft itself, without hardware, that is your monitor, that can utilize that much FPS, it is considered a waste of computing resources. Limit it to around ~60-70FPS, according to your screen refresh rate.
