About this video: How much RAM does modded Minecraft need? Well, in this video, we show you exactly the amount of RAM you need to add to Minecraft whether it is modded, vanilla, or anything in between.

So, how much RAM does Minecraft need without mods? Well, for vanilla Minecraft, we recommend 2GB of RAM. However, you can run vanilla Minecraft with less than 2GB of RAM if your PC can’t handle 2GB. In that case, never go under 1GB of RAM dedicated to Minecraft.

It is also worth noting that you should never dedicate more than half of your PC’s total RAM to Minecraft. This means that if you have 8GB of RAM, never dedicate more than 4GB of RAM to Minecraft.

When should you dedicate 4GB of RAM to Minecraft though? Well, if you have shaders or any mods up to about 50 total mods, you need 4GB of RAM. THis will insure that you always have the amount of RAM you need.

Over 50 mods to about 150 mods though, 6GB of RAM added to Minecraft is best. This will allow you to have no lag issues no matter what version of Minecraft you are using.

Lastly, anything over 150 mods needs 8GB of RAM. This is a lot, and some mod packs don’t need this much RAM. However, as a general rule, dedicating 6GB of RAM to big modpacks like this is the best.

And there you have it! That is how much RAM Minecraft needs. If we did help you find how much RAM to add to Modded Minecraft, please give the video a thumbs up and subscribe. Thanks in advance!
