Hey I'm just wondering how I would be able to give my minecraft more RAM, my PC shows that I have 7.88GB usable out of 8GB
But whenever I try making changes to the JVM arguments:
(-Xmx1G -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSIncrementalMode -XX:-UseAdaptiveSizePolicy -Xmn128M)
by changing -Xmx1G to -Xmx4G to give 4GB RAM it says
"Invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx4G The specified size exceeds the maximum representable size."
could someone please help me with this situation
Are you using 32 bit java or 64 bit?

32bit obviously
Only 64bit Java can support more than around 1.5G
so does this mean changing to 64bit java would allow me to give minecraft more RAM
and if so could someone please give me a link to the website website to download java 7 SE Runtime Environment (or any java that can support mods)
I installed jre-8u66-windows-x64 from the java website though when I tried running
-Xmx2G -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSIncrementalMode -XX:-UseAdaptiveSizePolicy -Xmn128M
it gave me the error message again:
Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for 2097152KB object heap Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM warning: Using incremental CMS is deprecated and will likely be removed in a future release
It's not enough to install it. It has to get used.
Check your launcher profile configuration and which JVM is selected.
