A good 1000 to 1500 frames but it won't matter because your monitor will only be able to display 144 frames.Posted on 21 October 2015 - 06:44 PM

Anything about 144 fps won't make a difference. SSD isn't necessary, get an HDD/SDD hybrid, much cheaper. SSDs fail more and last way shorter than HDDs, so you want a backup. Hybrid is your way to go.Posted on 21 October 2015 - 07:34 PM

You got that backwards about SSDs failing and lasting less than HDDs, SSDs are way more reliable and faster partly because they aren't mechanical drives like HDDs.

And can you advise me of what monitor ideal would be 1ms and 144hz max 200 pound monitor
How much fps would i get on badlion with optifine :) thanks pals
@imaginedontcare honestly a question like this would be given so much better an answer on a tech forum like LinusTechTips. (Sorry mods if this is advertising, just trying to help OP get a better answer)

This build which is far more powerful and utilizes DDR4 memory which makes it easier to upgrade parts in the future. Plus, you'll be able to use a 6-core Haswell-E CPU. This is actually cheaper than the one you linked.

The link that Smelly sent will give you much better FPS than the other computer. You'd be looking at a possible 1000 FPS, more than enough to stream or handle in the best quality. An "ez" 1080P@60FPS stream or recording.

Is this any better than the one u posted and my one how much fps
I'd say you should buy that now, instead of waiting. It's a very good build and is perfect for your requirements.

Anything is better than my crappy i5 3k processor that runs at 1.8 GHzPosted on 27 October 2015 - 07:53 AM
Just here to add my opinions to the mix:The build that @SmellyPenguin posted, while being a very good one, is what some might call 'Overkill' in some aspects with regards to playing Minecraft. I'm not trying to undermine previous posters, I just think that some of the above advice is slightly skewed.
For example, although it is generally accepted that Minecraft is quite a CPU intensive game, having an i5 is perfectly acceptable and any increased performance will be negligible should you upgrade to an i7. However, if you are video editing or rendering, an i7 would be a good thing to consider.
In some other builds, everyone seemed to decide that the best GPU to purchase for OP would be a GeForce GTX 970. Now I'm not one to contribute to the AMD and nVidia circlejerk, but if you were to go on most computer forums, people would recommend an AMD card over the GTX 970 in this price range - the R9 390. This card is often cheaper than the GTX 970 and has double the VRAM and often beats the GTX 970 in both real and synthetic benchmarks. In addition, only 3.5GB out of the 4GB of GDDR5 VRAM with which nVidia has equipped the card is 'usable.' (Search this up online if you want to see what this is about…)
Finally, it is also widely accepted that 8GB of ram is sufficient for most games, despite newer games recommending 16GB (I'm looking at you, Star Wars Battlefront). I would suggest buying 8GB now and then another 8 later, unless you desperately need the extra memory at this point in time.
Thanks.
EDIT: You should consider buying a Windows 10 key from this subreddit: reddit.com/r/microsoftsoftwareswap (I have bought several keys form there and have had no problems). Also, if you're looking for some cheaper and more simple mid-tower cases, I highly recommend the NZXT S340 and H440 - both are very good cases for the price.
