Reduce Render Distance

Lower your render distance in Video Settings. Bloomy Shaders performs best at 8-12 chunks on potato PCs. This reduces the area the shader must process each frame.

Disable Unnecessary Features

Access shader options and disable or minimize:

  • Advanced shadow rendering
  • Volumetric effects (if available)
  • Extra lighting passes
  • High-resolution texture filtering

Lower Resolution Settings

Reduce your game resolution in Video Settings if frame rate remains poor. Running at 1280×720 instead of 1920×1080 significantly improves performance without major visual loss.

Monitor Frame Rate

Enable the FPS counter (F3 key by default) to track performance. Aim for stable 30+ FPS during normal gameplay. If you dip below this, reduce render distance or shadow quality further.

Allocate More RAM

If using a launcher, increase allocated RAM to your Minecraft instance. Even potato PCs benefit from 2-4GB dedicated to the game, reducing stuttering and lag spikes.
