Shaders and low FPS

17th Dec, 2022

I got some new shaders for Minecraft. Even Optifine's installed, everything's hooked up. I have around 26 FPS with it dipping sometimes. I have a GTX 1050Ti graphics card.

The odd thing however is when I turn my render distance from 14 chunks to 48 chunks the FPS is the same. This leads me to believe my FPS should be higher.

Also my laptop is not hot at all when I have the shaders on. Do you think my computer could handle a higher FPS with shaders? If it can, how do I get higher FPS?
