💡 Minecraft (Java): Vanilla is CPU/draw-distance bound; shaders (e.g. BSL) or RTX make it very GPU-heavy.

At 1080p expect around 263 FPS, at 1440p about 263 FPS, and at 4K roughly 210 FPS with optimized settings. Its 16GB of VRAM is plenty for Minecraft (Java). Minecraft (Java) doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
