I recently upgraded my RX 480 to a GTX 1080. I play with the Faithful 32x32 pack, and sildurs vibrant shaders at medium/high. I have seen people run this shader at 4k with a 1080, and get a solid 60. When I am playing at 1080p, I'll have 60fps for a few seconds(when chunks are loaded/reloaded), then it is a steady decrease into the 30s. What settings should I change, or what should I do in general? I play at 1080p, so I should get better or at least equal framerates to this... Right?
The whole time it looked like it was at 60 fps. Try setting your max fps to 60 it will make you gpu have to not work as hard to reach higher than that dedicated value. Shaders can require quite a bit of ram try allocating if just shaders an no other mods around 4-5 gb's.
Just buying a GTX 1080 doesn't mean that you always get the maximum performance out of that card, because when your other hardware is much older it might be bottlenecking your card. And what are the Minececraft/shader settings that these guys use? They might for example render a lot less chunks than you currently do.
I understand that, but my processor, ram, MOBO etc, are all high-end, very new components. I can see from the video that he has about a render distance of twelve, but that isn't a big enough difference for him to get 4k60 and me get 1080p40. I just don't see the correlation.

I would really appreciate any help.

Alright, I'll try that out, I've got 5 gigs allocated.
Oh and that video isn't mine, just thought I'd let you know.
