About the "Sapphire OC Edition" and 850 MHZ
Hey, I posted the i5 2500 and the Sapphire Radeon 7750 OC Edition 1GB GDDR5. It got changed to "AMD" but Sapphire might have put something like a better fan in the OC Edition of their products. Plus, the average framerate is gone. Please add them back for the sake of readers and shoppers.


 * The proper product title is listed in the GPU column. If you wish, you may note the GPU's sub-manufacture in the comments. All that matters for the GPU column is core frequency and RAM amount (and frequency if you wish to to so). Temperatures related to overclocking/underclocking or fans and their speeds have no bearing on these performance results. Also, for FPS results you would either note the avg. FPS or the FPS range. Range is preferred, and you have provided it as such. -- Bb 20 (Edits)  17:31, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

A note for 'fps_window' and 'fps_window_native'
'fps_window' is the window resolution that Minecraft usual starts up as, which is 854×480. This use to be the window in it's maximized state. 'fps_window_native' is the same old 'fps_window', though is now defined as the primary native monitor resolution.

The reasoning for this new column is to provide more details for Minecraft users to compare against. Right now, users have to compare against a GPU + monitor resolution to find what best represents them. Now users should be able to compare against GPU + 854×480 and GPU + + monitor resolution. I hope that makes sense. So now when I want to see what works for me I am not bound by comparing to a screen resolution I may not have. While we could have users benchmark at common resolutions such as 1,280×720, 1366×768, 1920×1080, 2560×1440/1600 for more comparison data, it's easier to use one that everyone should be able to run at, and then their native monitor resolution.

I will be updating this page further to reflect these changes. -- Bb 20 (Edits)

Sort framerate columns by data-type
This is something I've wanted to do for a while, though not sure how to do, if doable at all with multiple columns; sort all framerate columns using data-sort-type="number". If someone could lend me help on how that is done then that would be most helpful! -- Bb 20 (Edits)  17:33, 6 September 2014 (UTC)

Mac issues
There are two big issues for mac users:


 * 1) We don't have fraps to tell us the frame rate, only the native F3 screen.
 * 2) Maximized does not actually maximize. We have that menu bar on the top, so even with the dock removed, we still have a slight screen ratio error.

 * It never says you must use fraps, it says it is optional. Just use the native F3 screen.
 * Take the results you get from that then

Verification of world?
Is there a way to verify what we are supposed to see at 276, 82, 180?

I'm in the middle of a thick forest, with uneven ground -- there is no way to make a small circle without the terrain around me affecting what happens.
