Hi, I upgraded my gaming rig a few weeks back and am facing some slowdowns. I’ve been playing games like Minecraft with shaders at 1080p, but I’m only managing about 30-20 FPS—way below what I expect. Could you help? My specs are: Intel i5 4690K, non-OC Asus Z97-P, 8GB RAM, HyperX Gainward, Nvidia GTX 970, 4GB VRAM, 1TB SSD, and a Samsung HDD. Thanks!

Well if you upgraded without doing a clean install of Windows that will cause it. Give us more information to help you. If you want specialized help message me here and we can Skype through it (or whatever you use)

I check the render distance settings and verify the allocated RAM for the task.

After a fresh setup of Windows and proper driver installation, any issues likely stem from a faulty component.

I believe I'm using a render distance of 12 and have allocated 4 GB of RAM.

It runs Battlefield 4 smoothly at 100 fps on high settings. It seems to work well with my budget GTX 970, which is the same model I saw listed as a reference.

It works well? I’m still confused.

Maybe the RAM problem is the cause, though I’m confident Minecraft with shaders can harm computers because its code isn’t reliable.
