Talk:Java Edition hardware performance/Archive 4

Important Things

 * The distribution of Linux is irrelevant.
 * The architecture and kernel version is necessary
 * OpenGL version column WILL NOT be added.
 * Java version column WILL NOT be added
 * Computer type (laptop/desktop) column WILL NOT be added
 * Max FPS = No limit
 * This page will be archived then cleaned monthly.

To Be Discussed

 * Should we count Mac as a Linux/Unix Distro?
 * Should we break the page into 2 or 3 sub-pages:
 * Unix/Linux (Includes Mac), Windows
 * or
 * Mac, Unix/Linux, Windows

Minimum Requirements
I doubt that Minecraft would be playable with only 256MB of RAM on Windows. XP requires about 200MB of RAM (While Microsoft Say 128MB is recommended if you disable the Page File on a laptop which only has about 200MB of RAM available Windows will complain about not having enough memory), Vista Requires 512MB-1GB and Windows 7 needs 1GB(32Bit Edition)-2GB(64Bit Edition). You would have the majority of the Games memory coming from the Page File, causing lag. --Stucuk 01:33, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

The minimum requirements for any game are in addition to the system requirements. So for Windows 7, you'd need 1GB of RAM for Windows 7 plus 256MB for Minecraft. A total of 1.25GB of RAM. Rcmaehl 15:10, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

A new section
I've been thinking. We should add a new section to "Results." Some people find that their framerate increases in fullscreen, including me. --Lolmaster 05:56, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Which would be what? Rcmaehl 15:08, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
