Performance Analysis: Minecraft: Java Edition on Your System
The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D (launch MSRP $479) paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT (launch MSRP 549 USD) delivers playable performance in Minecraft: Java Edition across every tested resolution and preset. The measured data shows average FPS ranging from 61.4 at 4K Ultra to 486.4 at 1080p Low, with the combination ranking 855th out of 1727 tested combos for this game. The CPU sits at the 87th percentile among all CPUs, while the GPU sits at the 71st percentile among all GPUs, indicating a balanced pairing that comfortably clears the 60 FPS playable threshold in all scenarios.
Measured FPS Breakdown
The following table lists the average FPS for each resolution and settings preset, as measured in the benchmark database.
| Resolution | Settings | Average FPS |
|------------|----------|-------------|
| 3840x2160 | High | 102.1 |
| 3840x2160 | Low | 163.5 |
| 3840x2160 | Medium | 125.6 |
| 3840x2160 | Ultra | 61.4 |
| 2560x1440 | High | 192.2 |
| 2560x1440 | Low | 308.4 |
| 2560x1440 | Medium | 242.2 |
| 2560x1440 | Ultra | 120.4 |
| 1920x1080 | High | 304.9 |
| 1920x1080 | Low | 486.4 |
| 1920x1080 | Medium | 386.6 |
| 1920x1080 | Ultra | 194.8 |
At 4K, the Ultra preset averages 61.4 FPS, just above the 60 FPS playable threshold. High and Medium presets provide 102.1 and 125.6 FPS respectively, while Low reaches 163.5 FPS. At 1440p, all presets exceed 120 FPS, with Ultra at 120.4 and Low at 308.4. At 1080p, the lowest average is 194.8 FPS at Ultra, and Low reaches 486.4 FPS. The scaling from 1080p to 4K is substantial: the 4K Low average of 163.5 is far below the 1080p Low figure of 486.4, and the 4K Ultra average of 61.4 is less than a third of the 1080p Ultra average of 194.8. This pattern indicates that the GPU becomes increasingly stressed as resolution and settings rise.
CPU and GPU Roles
The benchmark results indicate that the CPU’s single-thread performance is a key enabler for the extremely high frame rates seen at lower resolutions. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D scores 2080 in Cinebench R23 single-core, 2964 in Geekbench single-core, and 4430 in Passmark single-thread. These scores are among the highest in the database, and the 1080p Low average of 486.4 FPS suggests that the CPU is not a limiting factor at that resolution. The CPU also has 8 cores and 16 threads, with a 3DMark single-thread score of 1212, but Minecraft: Java Edition is known to rely heavily on single-thread performance, and the data supports that the CPU can feed the GPU well beyond typical display refresh rates.
As resolution increases, the GPU’s role becomes more dominant. At 4K Ultra, the average FPS drops to 61.4, while at 1080p Ultra it is 194.8. This 133.4 FPS gap (using the given numbers) shows that the GPU’s workload scales significantly with resolution. The RX 6750 XT has a Passmark G3D score of 20700 and a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2548, placing it at the 71st percentile. Its 12 GB of GDDR6 memory and 432.0 GB/s bandwidth are sufficient for the game’s demands, but the 4K Ultra result of 61.4 FPS indicates that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at the highest settings. At 1440p, the GPU still manages 120.4 FPS at Ultra, showing a comfortable margin. The CPU’s average benchmark score of 39768 and the GPU’s average of 26011 further illustrate that the CPU is relatively stronger, which aligns with the observed behavior: the CPU can push very high FPS at low resolutions, while the GPU limits performance at high resolutions.
Similar Performance Alternatives
The CPU’s nearest rivals, based on average benchmark score, are all within 0.8% of its performance. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8840HS has an average score of 39603, which is 0.4% higher than the 9800X3D’s 39768. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 scores 40048, 0.7% lower. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 450 scores 39485, 0.7% higher. The AMD Ryzen 7 7700 scores 40081, 0.8% lower. These processors would likely produce nearly identical frame rates in Minecraft: Java Edition, given the close benchmark scores. For the GPU, the nearest rivals are similarly close: the AMD Radeon R9 M395X scores 25891 (0.5% higher than the RX 6750 XT’s 26011), the AMD FirePro W7100 scores 25856 (0.6% higher), the AMD FirePro D700 scores 25842 (0.7% higher), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile scores 25740 (1.1% higher). Any of these GPUs would deliver comparable performance in this game, though the RX 6750 XT’s 12 GB memory and 432.0 GB/s bandwidth are specific to its design.
The Verdict
Yes, this PC can run Minecraft: Java Edition at 60 FPS or higher across all tested resolutions and presets. At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset averages 61.4 FPS, which clears the playable threshold, and all other settings (High, Low, Medium) also exceed 60 FPS. At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset averages 120.4 FPS, and at 1920x1080, the Ultra preset averages 194.8 FPS. The verdict by resolution confirms that every resolution and settings combination is playable, with the best settings being Ultra at each resolution. The combination ranks 855th out of 1727 tested combos, placing it in the upper half of all tested systems for this game. The CPU’s 87th percentile and GPU’s 71st percentile indicate a well-matched pair that delivers high frame rates without a clear weak link.

Best Settings per Resolution
The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra at every resolution, based on the measured data.
- 3840x2160: Ultra settings, average FPS 61.4
- 2560x1440: Ultra settings, average FPS 120.4
- 1920x1080: Ultra settings, average FPS 194.8
All other presets (Low, Medium, High) also exceed 60 FPS at each resolution, but Ultra provides the highest visual quality while still maintaining playable performance. The data confirms that this system can handle the game at maximum settings without dropping below the 60 FPS threshold, even at 4K.
