Hi, I just got a new computer for gaming and i wanted to play some minecraft. I have had it for about 2 months and it ran perfectly in 1.6.2 and 1.6.4 with one little bug. I would have to wait on the minecraft home screen for like 5 mins for the graphics card to "kick in" which was really unusual. It launched immediately though for games like TF2 and Terraria. Im positive its plugged in all of the way and im pretty sure i dont have integrated graphics. Now, in minecraft 1.7.2, no matter how long I wait on the home screen, my card just wont even kick in at all. The drivers are up to date and I have the latest version of java. Vsync is off in both my nvidia control panel and minecraft and i dont have the option for "run on high performance nvidia graphics" because I dont have integrated graphics. Here are my specs (everything is compatible, I know this cause a store helped me build it)
