The BEST Version of Minecraft for Low End PCs?

Playing Minecraft on a low end device is no easy task and even if you try all the steps I’ve done videos on on my channel for example optimization scripts deep bloating tools changing Windows settings changing in-game settings installing mods installing custom operating systems making your own customer praying system

Installing Arch by the way it still might not perform the way you want it to now many people play Minecraft Java Edition as it’s the most popular version of Minecraft developed by Mojang Studios and came out in 2011 and like the name suggests it was coded in the programming language Java and it

Still makes up a large part of the game’s coding language today there are many cons of java it’s often criticized for its relatively slow performance compared to other programming languages it’s very memory intensive and may not be the best option for a low end PC however today we’re going to be looking

At another version of Minecraft’s Minecraft Bedrock Edition in 2017 Minecraft Bedrock Edition was introduced a cross-platform version of Minecraft available on Windows Xbox play store station iOS and Androids Bedrock is coded in C plus plus and uses the Bedrock code base which is much more optimized and where it gets its name

From Bedrock was designed for devices that can’t run Java and it is a much better language and runs much more efficiently on low end PCS So today we’re going to be checking it out so the low end device in question I’ve decided to dig out my low end laptop OG viewers

Of the channel will know this laptop it’s my mom’s purple Dell Inspiron 1564. it’s got Intel core I3 330m processor 8 gigabytes of upgraded RAM and I’ve put an SSD in there it uses integrated Graphics it’s about 10 13 years old and it’s a very very old laptop so let’s try

And run Minecraft Java Edition on it so I’ve loaded up the latest version of Minecraft Java Edition that this will support it won’t support 1.19 but I’ve got 1.16 on here and look at the FPS it is pretty much unplayable we’re getting about six to seven FPS if you go ahead

And look at my video settings here we’re on pretty much the minimal video settings we can get without installing any mods or anything like that so yeah it is pretty unplayable there’s not really much I can do on here it’s a struggle to even fly on here it’s really

Bad chunks loading really slowly and yeah performance really does take a hit so yeah not a great option I would not recommend playing Minecraft like this and it’s a definite thumbs down from me if we go ahead and look at the task manager on this laptop I’m running a

Regular version of Windows 10 using the Chris Titus de bloating tool if you’re going to the performance tab as you can see here we’re on about 90 processes but five out of our eight gigabytes of RAM is being used up just from Minecraft alone I haven’t been bothered to

Uninstall any of the pre-installed blow off here since this is my mom’s laptop I can’t really mess around with it too much but yeah it’s safe to say the performance on this is pretty bad if we go ahead and throw up the windver here

As you can see we’re on Windows 10 20 H2 I’m probably not even gonna upload anymore so yeah not a good experience at all on Minecraft Java Edition next up we’re going to try Minecraft Bedrock Edition on this laptop now I’ve literally just opened this up I’ve

Turned down a couple of settings but already the performance is really good as you can see here ifps is on about 30 which is not the best but it’s definitely a lot more playable than five to six so yeah as you can see this is bedrock Edition here I’ve turned down

The settings pretty much as low as they can be if we look up in the sky here we even just about break 60 FPS looking into the sky so yeah much more playable experience and yeah definitely a good option for this computer so if we go

Ahead and look at the task manager again here on Bedrock Edition and if we go into the performance tab here as you can see we’re still on the same 90 processes but look at the RAM usage we’ve gone from about five gig to 3.3 out of our 8

Gigabytes of RAM so if you haven’t got much RAM then Bedrock Edition would be really good for you and just in general the performance is really good all right so that might be a bit of a fluke but here is another example so if you guys

Remember my super fast gaming PC that I bought from eBay the specs of it is an Intel Core i5 4460 eight gigabytes of RAM and integrated Graphics I’ve taken the GTX 1060 out of that for this test here’s just a short clip of me playing 1.19.4 completely vanilla settings with

These sync off obviously and yeah performance is not great on the latest version of Minecraft on this system very choppy gameplay experience the FPS is ranging from about five to ten however once it loads in a little bit it does shoot up to about 40 but yeah I

Definitely would not be able to play like this now yeah I can turn down some settings and install mods and all that other kind of stuff but we’re just going off basic vanilla performance here it’s not a great experience it’s starting to go up in fps a little bit here but it is

Still very choppy and not very playable at all if we do a sky test here we just about break 60 with which is pretty good but yeah it’s not very good playing like this at all alright so this is bedrock Edition on the low end PC now as you can

See here the FPS is kind of similar but the performance is a lot smoother the gameplay is a lot smoother as you can see it’s not quite as choppy I’m not sure if you’ll be able to tell on video if we look up in the sky here we get

About 60 FPS but yeah this is completely vanilla settings I haven’t turned down anything and yeah it is pretty good I mean yeah the FPS is a little bit lower now because we’re in a jungle biome but yeah it definitely feels a lot smoother on this low end PC and the RAM and

Memory usage is a lot lower on this system so yeah it definitely takes full advantage of the eight gigabytes of RAM that I’ve got in this system so yeah it’s pretty fair to say that Minecraft Bedrock Edition performs a lot better than Minecraft Java Edition now Bedrock

Actually has a little secret if we go to the marketplace here as you can see on the front page we’ve got a PVP pack called astral 16x so if we go on it as you can see it’s by Q cubecraft games so purple themed PVP texture pack but wait

A minute what’s this by notro Dan yep that is right I have made this texture pack I’ve partnered with cubecraft games and I’ve made this texture pack for the Minecraft Marketplace it’s a purple themed 16x pack kind of like Galaxy themed here’s a couple of screenshots of

It it does look very good in my opinion I had to make this completely custom I had to do every block and item otherwise it wouldn’t be allowed on the store here’s another little preview of it as well and yeah it’s doing really well on the marketplace so if you guys want to

Check this out for yourself I’ll leave a link to it in the description and you can buy it for yourself for 660 mine coins which is about 3 pounds 29. now if you can’t afford it for whatever reason you can actually get 660 Minecon through Bing Rewards I’ll leave a link to a

Video in the description showing you guys how to do that but yeah if you want to purchase this this will really help me out gives me a good little Kickback out of making this texture pack because it took months and months to make so I’d really appreciate it if you guys has

Checked it out I’m also going to be giving away for Minecraft Java Edition as well I’ll leave a link to that in the description you guys can go ahead and get it there and yeah let’s show it off all right guys so here is the texture

Pack I’ve applied it to my Minecraft as you can see here a good little message for you right here all right guys so here is the texture pack so as I said I had to make every single block entity mob item custom completely custom and it took absolutely ages but yeah I

Definitely think it’s paid off I’ve done Minecraft kind of my way I’ve done all of these textures and everything like that I’ve got this cool little map here so I can see like pretty much every block and entity in Minecraft so that definitely helps when I’m making all of

The stuff here but yeah this took a while that I’m so proud of it I’m really happy with how it’s come out and I’m really happy to see that it’s doing really well as well on Marketplace it was on the front page yesterday I don’t think it’s on there anymore so yeah if

You guys want to go and check this out for yourself like I said I’ll leave a link to it in the description down below this took a while so yeah it’d really mean a lot if you guys check this out and it’s also available for Java as well

Which I’ll leave in the description down below it’s not completely custom on Java I originally made this in Java and then I ported it over to bedrock so yeah Java isn’t completely custom so uh don’t take my word for that but yeah Bedrock has to be in order to be on the Minecraft

Marketplace but yeah no it’s good so yeah and made a texture pack for a while and I’ve just come back with this so yeah pretty insane and I’m definitely going to be doing a lot more texture pack stuff as well now I’ve got a little question for you guys should I do more

Texture Pack videos on this channel or should I move over to this channel which you should definitely subscribe to it’s called Notre Dame texture packs I’ll leave a link to in the description if you’re into texture packs and Minecraft and bedwars gameplay and stuff like that

All my text pack stuff is going to be on this channel now but let me know if you want to see it on this channel because it’s a little bit complicated the kind of content I’ve got going on my Channel right now so yeah I decided to make a

Second channel for all of this stuff so yeah definitely subscribe to this if you want to see more text packs I’m going to be quite consistent on this channel as well I’m going to do a proper astral review on this as well for Java and Bedrock so yeah make sure to go check

Out this Channel and yeah let’s go play some Bedrock alright so here we are on Minecraft Bedrock Edition and we’re gonna be playing some SkyWars on cubecraft now shout out to cubecraft for making this whole astral texture pack thing happen yeah they’re really good and they’ve been really helpful and

Supportive throughout the process of doing this but yeah we’re going to be paying them back today and we’re going to be playing on their server I didn’t actually realize how big Bedrock Edition actually is I mean it makes sense because obviously there’s people playing on their phone people playing on Console

Like pretty much every person that can’t play Minecraft on PC is playing Bedrock Edition and like the servers like if you think Hypixel is like a massive server you haven’t obviously seen Hive or cubecraft on Bedrock is insane so I definitely think the future is bedrock Edition honestly I’m probably not going

To be playing it much on my channel maybe on my texture pack Channel I might be doing some game gameplay and text packs and stuff on there I used to have a Bedrock themed channel for like commentaries and stuff but I kind of lost interested in that to be honest but

Yes this is Astro in some PVP really nice looking pack honestly the marketplace are lucky to have this honestly it’s probably like one of two good PVP packs on the marketplace right now the other one being by my good friend Mario okay these guys are pretty

Stacked I’ve only had a stone sword this entire game you know this guy does damage okay I do have an enchanted stone sword here it’s getting a bit sweaty in uh Minecraft Bedrock Edition but yeah let me know in the comments section down below if you play on Bedrock Edition I

Know a lot of people that watch me do play Bedrock Edition it probably is a better version of Minecraft for lower end PCS but obviously a lot of people with low end PCS don’t really like buy Minecraft they just play on cracks so Bedrock is probably not a good option

For them well it’s literally just me and this guy oh no can we hit him off no we’ve lost this we’ve lost this bad I need a better sword man what our village had a stone saw this entire game yep no we’ve lost that GG now I’m a massive

Survival games player so yeah we shouldn’t lose this game I think uh cubecraft Survival Games is pretty easy lots of people that play on cubecraft are playing on like their phones and their consoles and that kind of stuff so if you’re on keyboard and mouse you’ve pretty much got unfair Advantage

Honestly all right if he’s enabled thank you oh you are stacked I’ll take that thank you um we’ve got diamond sword so GG so yeah basically just go around spawn killing people just bullying console players and mobile players in fact actually yeah that’ll be a good video let me know in the comments

Section down below if you want me to do like a playing Minecraft on Xbox or Playstation or stuff like that so you guys can see how bad I am on controller so I can feel these guys’s pain yeah that’ll actually be a really good video

Yeah let me know if you want to see that in the comments because I’ve been struggling for stuff to continue my playing Minecraft on series with I kind of ran out of tech to play Minecraft on but yeah console and Xbox and maybe even my phone this person doesn’t know what he’s doing

GG so yeah games go quite quickly on cubecraft Survival Games the hardest part really is just finding people lots of people just seem to disappear so yeah actually getting Bedrock Edition on PC is quite difficult so you’ve either got to have Windows 10 or Windows 11. if you install a custom operating system

Microsoft Store might not get included so you might not be able to install Minecraft Bedrock Edition I don’t think you can get this on Linux I think you can but it’s like an emulator kind of thing so you’re basically tricking it into thinking you’re running Android I

Think so you have to own the Google Play Store version of Minecraft bedrock in order to play it on Linux same with Mac OS as well I believe they’re the same so yeah you pretty much just need Windows or some form of Windows in order to play

Bedrock on PC but that doesn’t stop you playing on your console or on your phone or anything like that that’s pretty cool for me and that was the game 10 kills wow but yeah I do like to mix up on this channel every now and then I was doing

Lots of Windows based videos customizing Windows Windows ISO videos operating system video so I decides to go back to my roots and play a bit of Minecraft here I know I’ve probably got quite a lot of new subscribers that subscribe to me for Tech stuff so uh yeah I’m not

Sure how this one’s gonna go down but yeah in future it’ll be my text pack Channel and all this stuff for Content like this so you guys know what to do if you want to see more stuff like this where’d you go okay there we we go some

People move so weird on this so in recent Tech news we’ve obviously got the Nvidia RTX 4060 TI now in testing lots of people are doing videos on that I haven’t been able to get one obviously because I’m not a massive Tech Channel but it does look quite interesting

Actually and I’m kind of wanting to upgrade my PC my graphics card for a while now so I might be interested in buying one and possibly doing some videos on that so uh yeah I’m not sure if I’m gonna buy it just yet the performance on it doesn’t look the best

To be honest with you but we’ll see if I could be first on that doing like Minecraft benchmarks and stuff I reckon that’ll do pretty well and yeah in terms of operating system on my main PC right now I’m running Windows 11 just the standard version deep bloated with Chris

Titus’s tools and I’m also running Windows ltsc on a separate drive so yeah I just thought I’d give a little update to that because I changed like literally every day what I’m using so just in case people are wondering is that but yeah another astral pack looks so good in

Just regular PVP like I said it’s probably like one of the best products in the marketplace right now and there’s going to be lots more to come I’m probably going to do another one very soon so yeah definitely make sure to look out for that oh okay backstabber I missed that it’s a

Little bit weird playing on Bedrock Edition sometimes like my aim feels a little bit off but you get used to it and we’ve just got one last guy here I think yep just this one guy how is he so high on hearts let’s try to get him with some arrows

Here there we go GG Nine Kills that game wow so yeah that was pretty much the video definitely check out Minecraft Bedrock edition if you’re on a low end PC out there and let me know in the comments section down below if you’ve tried out Bedrock Edition before and

What your thoughts are on it I know there’s quite a lot of beef out there of like Java Edition people and Bedrock Edition people and lots of people are always arguing like which is better I’m not saying anything in this video but obviously I’ve done tests at the start

Of the video to show that Bedrock is a more optimized version and yeah I’m not moving to bedrock Edition or anything like that and I’m not going to do content like this much anymore but yeah this is just a one-off see if you guys

Enjoy it see if you guys like it and uh we’ll see from there and yeah if you want to text pack stuff or just general Minecraft content I guess then subscribe to my other channel for more stuff like this so another cool thing I want to

Show you is in the cubecraft lobby if you turn around from where you spawn in as you can see Astros 16x right here so if I’ve got another texture pack on this actually changes to be my texture pack so it’s kind of like a walking advertisement really on the cubecraft

Server so yeah it’s pretty cool I appreciate it and then if you click on it it takes you right to the pack so you guys can go ahead and buy that and yeah they’ve got other packs and stuff as well here like Mario’s solar pack violace ether and yeah there’s lots of

PVP packs and lots more to come on cubecraft so yeah that’s gonna be the video guys hope you guys all enjoyed it if you guys want to check out a video on Windows 11 ameliorated then click here and I’ll see you there
