Upgrade Ram to 16gb despite old hardware?

Hi, I have a PC with i3 4160, gtx 750 ti (2gb) and 8gb ddr3 with 1600mHz actually everything runs on low settings, except Minecraft, and since I really like Minecraft with z. B. Hexxit games, it lies and I'm not even up to 30fps, is that s.der Graka and processor or s.Ram?

If so, can you recommend me good ddr3 ram 1x8gb

Please check which RAM was installed and try to get some of that kind.

If you want to swap it completely, then look in the motherboard manual, which RAM bars are compatible.

In general, however, you will have to decide for yourself whether this is worth the money.
Eventually, RAM bars with older technology will become more and more expensive over time (if you even get them!)

The RAM is not the CPU and graphics card limit here I would invest in the platform no more money

With Minecraft your processor limits the performance. Again, 8 GB of RAM bring more unfortunately, unfortunately not so much. If there's a new bar, then this should have the same clock (MHz) and latency (CL).

I would not spend money on upgrading this PC. This PC can also be useful with a Linux distribution. Minecraft is also available for Linux.

As a Linux distribution, I recommend Lubuntu. This requires only a fraction of the system resources Windows needs. This is an official Ubuntu devirat, but with a resource-saving desktop with start menu. Here is the download: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/...-amd64.iso This is the current stable long-term support version.

After having downloaded the ISO you have to write it with this tool https://www.balena.io/...io/etcher/ on an empty formatted USB stick. This tool creates bootable sticks from ISO files. Or you burn the ISO with this tool http://www.freeisoburner.com/ on a blank DVD if you can't boot from USB.

Then boot the stick or DVD and follow the instructions of the installer. It offers the possibility to completely delete the hard disk and sets up the Internet. I recommend a full installation. The latest Firefox, Libreoffice, multimedia components and tools will be installed right away. One should also select the item third-party software.

After completing the installation and the first start, the update manager appears in the taskbar. Install these updates. The update manager cares not only about the system but also about the installed programs. You do not have to update every single program like with Windows. The updating can also be completely automated so that it runs in the background.

How to install programs: Start Menu> System Tools> Software. This is like an Appstore and is also served.

Sometimes you have to install programs that are not available in the appstore. Such programs are available as a deb file. These are installation packages that can be easily installed by double-clicking. Examples:

Minecraft: https://launcher.mojang.com/...ecraft.deb After installation just log in with your account. If Java is not already installed, it will be automatically installed.
Skype: https://go.skype.com/...nux-64.deb webcam required
Youtube downloader and converter: https://www.4kdownload.com/de/products/product-videodownloader

Google Earth: https://www.google.com/...wnload-pro

Google Chrome: https://www.google.com/...de/chrome/

Discord: https://discordapp.com/api/download?platform=linux&format=deb

Also on TeamSpeak you do not have to do without Linux. The installation is a bit complicated for Linux newcomers. Here are the instructions: Go to the start menu> system tools> LXTerminal. Enter the following commands and conclude with Enter:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa: beardoverflow / ts3client
sudo apt update -y
sudo apt install ts3client -y

Lubuntu goes off like a rocket and hardly scratching on the system resources. Windows, on the other hand, is a lame duck. As a result, Minecraft runs much smoother.

Actually, that should work.

Would buy me a Xeon, which cost relatively little money.

A Xeon e3 1220 V3, for example, costs 30 euro, is like an i5-4460 4 x 3.5 GHz.

Then a small RX570 and then your system runs relatively creamy.

Oh yes, single RAM is always bad. Good 40% loss of performance
