How to Assign More RAM to Minecraft for a Better Experience
Last updated
Ever wondered how you can make your Minecraft adventures smoother and faster? It’s all about the RAM!
If Minecraft has been a bit sluggish for you, the answer might be to give it more RAM. Let’s break down how to do this, making your gaming experience better than ever.
Quick Steps to Boost Your Minecraft with Extra RAM
Allocating more RAM to Minecraft can significantly improve your gameplay by making the game run smoother, especially if you’re playing on large maps or with many mods.
First things first, you need to check how much RAM your computer has. You can easily do this on a PC by hitting the Windows key, typing ‘System Information,’ and looking at the ‘Installed Physical Memory (RAM)’ line. On a Mac, click the Apple menu, select ‘About This Mac,’ and look for the ‘Memory’ section.
Once you know how much RAM you have, you can allocate more to Minecraft. If you’re using the default Minecraft launcher, click on ‘Installations,’ then the version of Minecraft you’re playing. Click ‘More Options,’ and you’ll see a box labeled ‘JVM Arguments.’ Here, you’ll find a part that reads ‘-Xmx1G.’ The ‘1G’ stands for the amount of RAM Minecraft uses by default (1 gigabyte). Change ‘1G’ to half of your total RAM, but never go over 8G, as too much RAM can also cause problems.
