It's quite hard to see what your specs are but by the looks of things, there is much worse. If you don't use the computer alot, I'd restore and update it to free it of any bloatware or any other applications that could be slowing it down.

You think he'll be able to do that if he can't find the relevant specs?
What? whats with all the excess information?! From what I could pick out from that list of useless crap you might just need to upgrade your ram from 4gb to 8gb. Other than that your rig isn't bad. The CPU is a bit low on the index but that's not a huge issue. I can't tell if you have a graphics card or not put if you were experiencing major frame drops at even the lowest graphics settings then a GPU would be worth the investment.

It's not a rig. It's a laptop. And it's got Intel Integrated Graphics. It should have an additional GPU, but from the information given it appears to either be disabled or non-existant.
Oh and for future reference when referring to PC specs the best way is: Motherboard model, CPU model and GHz, RAM space, GPU model, and Hard-drive space. Power Supply and other peripherals aren't as important unless your computer isn't even turning on.

Again, it's a laptop. All he had to provide was the model number, which he did.

Yes. It is running linux. And how did you know that was the computer I had?
The model number was listed in the specs you provided. Not going to lie, I think that machine is pretty much maxed out. What are your optifine settings though? I'll let you know what you can optimize further.

My Settings are default. I only changes fancy to fast.
I believe your system just has poor specs. based on what you have said, the best option would be to disable smooth lighting. That's about all you can do.

Since he has optifine, he can also turn on smooth fps, fast math, ect... but with the awful sepcs even that wont do much.
Ok to help, I only have 2g ram, with 1 g dedicated to minecraft. my computer is 10 years old, vista, and has intel.
I barely get 15 fps and thats thanks to optifine, however, my computer runs just fine as long as its a server with low lag and I have my optifine set to low on everything.
Things run pretty nice(as in I dont have jagged edges everywhere and it doesnt glitch out as much), so when I see this I just want you to know;
turning your settings to the lowest in every section, and make sure to read the descriptions for the ones that DO affect performance. Figure out what ones work better for your computer so it doesnt overheat or run too slow. The fast option is nice, but reviewing the other options help since often they are set to be all on (animations are also intensive on your computer, so turning most of those off helps.) Most people have a better computer than I do, so if I can make mine work im sure it might help you.
No, m not someone who knows a whole lot of information as far as computer specs, but from what im reading it makes more sense to go into your optifine and fix those issues first.
You can also try an older version, which is what I do; my computer isn't even 64 bit (well, the OS) and has a slower/older CPU and only 3 GB of plain old DDR RAM (that's not a typo, it doesn't even have DDR2; it does have an actual dedicated graphics card though, albeit no longer useful for "extreme HD gaming" and probably worse than modern integrated graphics) and I have to allocate less than 1 GB to avoid "Minecraft has run out of memory" errors (which are actually due to 32 bit programs being limited to 2 GB of process space, and Java using memory in addition to what Minecraft uses, which claims to have plenty of free memory when this happens) but 1.6.4 runs fine, aside from a widespread issue with server lag caused by zombie pathfinding (serious enough that even high-end computers had issues, one comment on the bug report says it needed "thousands of times" the available resources) but unlike the performance issues I get in 1.8 in particular there is an easy patch for it (from Forge, which I modded directly into the vanilla game; that said, the issue is only really noticeable near a village).
The changes in system requirements since 1.6 are also something - and completely refute claims that they have been "optimizing" the game; I posted a comparison in this thread (one of many such threads); in particular, the recommended GPU for 1.6 (weaker than what I have) fails to reach the minimum requirement for 1.8 - quite a big leap for a game that still has blocky pixelated graphics at only 16x resolution! I've also seen people claim that they can run an older version with 200+ mods better than 1.8, so that refutes any claims that the lag is due to more features; my own experience with modding newer features and some of my own into 1.6.4 also supports this.
Of course, if you downgrade that pretty much means you can only play singleplayer unless there are any servers that still run on such an old version but mulltiplayer may run better than singelplayer if you have a good internet connection since your computer doesn't have to handle most of the game logic, which is a much bigger limitation in my case than actual FPS (also, you really need to be able to run at a render distance of 10 chunks to avoid bugs, due to a flawed decision to change how chunk loading works in 1.7.4 without actually fixing the underlying bug, which had been known for years).
Also (referring to Ri5ux's post), Advanced OpenGL, which doubles my FPS and significantly reduces lag spikes and enables me to play on Normal render distance without running out of VRAM, no longer exists in 1.8 since they thought code from the Pocket Edition would be better despite being written for very different hardware.
I have a horrible computer that does nothing. Here are my specs:

I have the latest version of Optifine too. Average FPS: 18 Do you know how to fix this?
I use my computer a lot so this doesn't help.

Curse PremiumYou think he'll be able to do that if he can't find the relevant specs?
No offense @ OP.

What? whats with all the excess information?! From what I could pick out from that list of useless crap you might just need to upgrade your ram from 4gb to 8gb. Other than that your rig isn't bad. The CPU is a bit low on the index but that's not a huge issue. I can't tell if you have a graphics card or not put if you were experiencing major frame drops at even the lowest graphics settings then a GPU would be worth the investment.

Curse PremiumIt's not a rig. It's a laptop. And it's got Intel Integrated Graphics. It should have an additional GPU, but from the information given it appears to either be disabled or non-existant.
Also, where'd you get 4GBs of RAM? There's 2GBs.

This machine is running linux, correct?

Oh and for future reference when referring to PC specs the best way is: Motherboard model, CPU model and GHz, RAM space, GPU model, and Hard-drive space. Power Supply and other peripherals aren't as important unless your computer isn't even turning on.

Curse PremiumAgain, it's a laptop. All he had to provide was the model number, which he did.

Yes. It is running linux. And how did you know that was the computer I had?

Curse PremiumThe model number was listed in the specs you provided. Not going to lie, I think that machine is pretty much maxed out. What are your optifine settings though? I'll let you know what you can optimize further.

My Settings are default. I only changes fancy to fast.

Retired StaffI believe your system just has poor specs. based on what you have said, the best option would be to disable smooth lighting. That's about all you can do.

Curse PremiumSince he has optifine, he can also turn on smooth fps, fast math, ect... but with the awful sepcs even that wont do much.

Sorry about that, there is a better version attached to this post.
Ok to help, I only have 2g ram, with 1 g dedicated to minecraft. my computer is 10 years old, vista, and has intel.
I barely get 15 fps and thats thanks to optifine, however, my computer runs just fine as long as its a server with low lag and I have my optifine set to low on everything.
Things run pretty nice(as in I dont have jagged edges everywhere and it doesnt glitch out as much), so when I see this I just want you to know;
turning your settings to the lowest in every section, and make sure to read the descriptions for the ones that DO affect performance. Figure out what ones work better for your computer so it doesnt overheat or run too slow. The fast option is nice, but reviewing the other options help since often they are set to be all on (animations are also intensive on your computer, so turning most of those off helps.) Most people have a better computer than I do, so if I can make mine work im sure it might help you.
No, m not someone who knows a whole lot of information as far as computer specs, but from what im reading it makes more sense to go into your optifine and fix those issues first.

Curse PremiumSmooth Lighting Level: 0%
Smooth Lighting: OFF or Minimum
Render Distance: The lower, the better
Performance Settings -> Fast Math: On
Performance Settings -> Smooth World: On
Performance Settings -> Lazy Chunk Loading: On
Performance Settings -> Fast Render: On
Performance Settings -> Preloaded Chunks: Off
Performance Settings -> Load Far: Off
Performance Settings -> Chunk Updates: 1
Performance Settings -> Dynamic Updates: On
Quality Settings -> Mipmap Type: Nearest
Quality Settings -> Mipmap Level: Max
Quality Settings -> Ansiotropic Filtering: Off
Quality Settings -> Antialiasing: Off
Quality Settings -> Connected Textures: Fast
If you can find the Advanced OpenGL setting, set it to Fast or On. Fast gives the best results.
Also be sure you're running the latest version of Java. And be sure it's 64-Bit if the Linux distribution you're running is 64-Bit.
Let me know what your framerate is afterwards, I'm curious.

Dear cog why? Is that a school computer?!
Note. This account is deprecated due to past bigotry in posts that cannot be deleted.
You can also try an older version, which is what I do; my computer isn't even 64 bit (well, the OS) and has a slower/older CPU and only 3 GB of plain old DDR RAM (that's not a typo, it doesn't even have DDR2; it does have an actual dedicated graphics card though, albeit no longer useful for "extreme HD gaming" and probably worse than modern integrated graphics) and I have to allocate less than 1 GB to avoid "Minecraft has run out of memory" errors (which are actually due to 32 bit programs being limited to 2 GB of process space, and Java using memory in addition to what Minecraft uses, which claims to have plenty of free memory when this happens) but 1.6.4 runs fine, aside from a widespread issue with server lag caused by zombie pathfinding (serious enough that even high-end computers had issues, one comment on the bug report says it needed "thousands of times" the available resources) but unlike the performance issues I get in 1.8 in particular there is an easy patch for it (from Forge, which I modded directly into the vanilla game; that said, the issue is only really noticeable near a village).
The changes in system requirements since 1.6 are also something - and completely refute claims that they have been "optimizing" the game; I posted a comparison in this thread (one of many such threads); in particular, the recommended GPU for 1.6 (weaker than what I have) fails to reach the minimum requirement for 1.8 - quite a big leap for a game that still has blocky pixelated graphics at only 16x resolution! I've also seen people claim that they can run an older version with 200+ mods better than 1.8, so that refutes any claims that the lag is due to more features; my own experience with modding newer features and some of my own into 1.6.4 also supports this.
See also this post from Optifine's creator: "Minecraft 1.8 has so many performance problems that I just don't know where to start with."
Of course, if you downgrade that pretty much means you can only play singleplayer unless there are any servers that still run on such an old version but mulltiplayer may run better than singelplayer if you have a good internet connection since your computer doesn't have to handle most of the game logic, which is a much bigger limitation in my case than actual FPS (also, you really need to be able to run at a render distance of 10 chunks to avoid bugs, due to a flawed decision to change how chunk loading works in 1.7.4 without actually fixing the underlying bug, which had been known for years).
Also (referring to Ri5ux's post), Advanced OpenGL, which doubles my FPS and significantly reduces lag spikes and enables me to play on Normal render distance without running out of VRAM, no longer exists in 1.8 since they thought code from the Pocket Edition would be better despite being written for very different hardware.
TheMasterCaver's First World - possibly the most caved-out world in Minecraft history - includes world download.
TheMasterCaver's World - my own version of Minecraft largely based on my views of how the game should have evolved since 1.6.4.
Why do I still play in 1.6.4?
