How much ram should i allocate to minecraft

Playing Minecraft on PC means you have access to a world of mods, shaders, and other unique elements to add to your copy of the game. However, by default, Minecraft only allows you to allocate 2 GB of RAM to the application, meaning your performance can be hindered if you decide to download a ton of add-ons.

If you want to increase performance across the board, you'll need to allocate more RAM to Minecraft, which can be done right from the application itself.

Allocate more RAM to Minecraft

Fortunately, while Minecraft caps your RAM by default, it's extremely simple to uncap it.

All you have to do is open the Minecraft Launcher on PC to start. With the launcher open, follow the steps below to increase your RAM usage while playing Minecraft:

• Click on either "Minecraft: Java Edition" or "Minecraft for Windows" from the left-hand side of the screen
• On both of these pages, you'll see an "Installations" tab at the top of the screen
• Select the Installations tab and hover over your installation of the game
• By hovering, you can see a three-dot icon appear next to the "Play" button
