What computer do you have for 300 fps on extreme? o_O

I have an HP g6 Pavilion laptop
Intel i3-2350
Intel graphics 3000
4 gb RAM

Pretty bad for mcsg don't you think?
What kind of frame rates you get?

I'm getting a new computer hopefully this year, because my old computer was stolen. This is the thing I've been looking into: http://icecat.us/us/p/sony/vpcl218fx-b/vaio-all-in-one-pcs-vpcl218fx-b-9572171.html

It has I think great specs considering it's price
8GB RAM
Intel Core i7
2TB memory
nVidia Graphics
And awesome 24" display!
I'm planning to get the Windows 8 version, now when I'm comfortable with the OS.

Currently I am using an old Lenovo laptop, T61p I think. Getting 60ish fps with Optifine.

And I'm pretty proud of my mouse also, though it isn't a gaming mouse, it's great! It fits well in my hand and works on any surface; Microsoft 3500 Wireless Mouse :) :D

How much does that computer cost? Because honestly I don't think you're getting the best deal. They're going on about their i7 processor and Nvidia graphics, yet they're using the lowest quality i7, and an incredibly outdated GPU. I bet I could design a better computer for you for the same price.

It is 1060€ at its cheapest, not sure what in dollars. And it's not EXACTLY that one. When I have access to computer, I'll check it, I'm on mobile right now. And technically, it's free because the laptop that was stolen was worth 1040€, but we got it for 649€, yeah? So, someone stole it, we get insurance money, total 1040€. We buy the new computer, and boom. Profit.

btw, though it's the worst i7, it's still better than the best i5, right? I am not that nerdy to know these things, I just know that i7 is best, nVidia is good and 8GB RAM is good. I also know that TB is a lot.

That i7 is actually quite a bit worse than many i5's and, though Nvidia is great, that specific Nvidia card is not. Spending that much money on that computer isn't a good idea in my opinion. Personally, I would build the computer myself (which isn't nearly as hard as you might think). Just look up a few Internet tutorials, and you'll be golden, with a much more powerful computer for the same price.

I'll even design the computer for you, picking out each of the parts, and making sure you have the best computer available in your price range. I'll get back to you in a little bit with your build.

Ohh, that's so nice! I would go for that, but I just don't need that HC computer, I need a computer that runs Minecraft smoothly and lets me record with good fps at the same time. I have to think about this, tell me more about this, how long it's gonna take, and if you just could, tell me ERRYDING you know about building computers. I just love to read your posts. <3

Ps. If I just remember, I can PM you when I've made my decision.

i3 processor
4GB memory
500GB storage
Intel HD Graphics 300 -_- I don't even have a graphics card wtf?
Can't find my motherboard.
A broken optical drive.

I get like 30-50 fps on tiny most days, sometimes 20.


However, I plan on building a computer that looks a bit like this:

CPU: i5 4670
Mobo: ASRock Z87 Extreme3
Storage: Seagate Barracude 1 TB 7200RPM
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8 GB 1600MHZ
Video card: GTX 660
PSU: SeaSonic M12II 650W
OS: Windows 8 64-bit
Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case

I approve of the computer you're planning on building. Ideal for that price range.
