Best Minecraft (Java) settings for the AMD RX 9060 XT (8GB) (2026)

On a AMD RX 9060 XT (8GB) (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), Minecraft (Java) runs at roughly 134 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 134FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 9060 XT (8GB) is a strong 1440p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Minecraft (Java) is a relatively light game to run. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it flies at 1440p — about 134 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.

Across resolutions you can expect around 203 FPS at 1080p and 134 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 76 FPS at 4K. Minecraft (Java) doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings below.

💡 Minecraft (Java): Vanilla is CPU/draw-distance bound; shaders (e.g. BSL) or RTX make it very GPU-heavy.
Recommended settings
Render Distance16baseline
How many chunks render around you - by far the biggest performance lever, and heavily CPU-bound. 12-16 is a good balance.
GraphicsFancybaseline
Fast trims transparency and leaves; Fabulous is the heaviest. Fancy is the usual middle ground.
Simulation Distance8baseline
How far the world keeps ticking (mobs, redstone) - a CPU cost. 8 is fine for most.
Smooth LightingMaximumbaseline
Softer light gradients between blocks. Cheap; Maximum looks best.
ParticlesAllbaseline
Rain, smoke and effect particles. Minimal helps on weaker machines.
CloudsFancybaseline
Sky cloud detail. Off for a tiny gain; pure preference.
Mipmap Levels4baseline
Smooths distant block textures - essentially free, use the max.
