Does Minecraft run good on this laptop?

I haven't had any problems running it at all. But be aware that asus has a default setting that shuts down wifi when the battery gets low, so you want to either play while on a charger or do what I did; google how to turn off that setting.

it runs tf2 magnificently, runs minecraft just as well, and I have been playing through batman arkham asylum with majority of settings at max and it has had only a couple of slowdowns in certain areas of the game (and this is without downgrading to windows 7!)

I honestly do not know. I've not attempted to play any video games on the system. It's a fairly decent machine, so I would suspect it would play it fine. Minecraft graphics don't seem that demanding, but I'm no expert.

Yes, it can run Minecraft without issues. I would recommend a cooling pad under it (Zalman ZM-NC2000 is what I use) because Minecraft will keep it warm.

Minecraft will run on any new PC/Laptop. You don't need a separate GPU. It's a web-based application.

Extremely well ...mine craft isn't even graphically tasking ...I run Final Fantasy XIV ARR with no problems at all ..and that game has beautiful graphics

It handles minecraft and photoshop alright, I have both on my 256 GB SP1, but I'd recommend increasing the amount of ram you can use for minecraft to get better performance out of it. It's an integrated gpu and the ram usage is locked down so I wouldn't expect a huge amount of graphics horsepower.

Most likely. Check to see how much RAM is required for minecraft and wether or not this laptop meets those requirements.

Hi Daniel,I am not a gamer and I don't even know what minecraft is!! I bought this laptop because it met my specs. I use it mainly for research and shopping. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

I am not sure if you could fit minecraft onto this laptop. It only has 4 gb on it and it is not very good for playing games on it.

I've played all of the above with no problems, Can play minecraft on max settings with at least 60fps. tf2 ive played once or twice it was fine. skyrim was also fine

I've never played minecraft. But I have played civ 5 and it can be played on low/medium just fine but on high it lags.

Depends. I've only tried minecraft on it and it works pretty good with a few settings changed. I don't really think that this is a "full fledged" gaming computer, though

Yes it does but apparently nvidia doesn't read minecraft so I have to use the intel the graphics instead of the GeForce also on normal settings I get 70 fps and up with máx settings i get around 30-45

Absolutely. It is way past the "recommended" system requirements on Mojang site: https://help.mojang.com/customer/portal/articles/325948-minecraft-system-requirements If you look at the wiki page linked there, you'll see the GT 740M running it 1366768 at 140fps, this laptop is slower by not more than 25% slower, so you should be in 60-80fps range easily, making it nice and smooth.

It will run pretty well. There's a video on youtube with someone running it with only 1GB of RAM and it's fine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AykH-zUcPJw

The graphics are the onboard Intel HD Graphics 3000 which has 1.67GB of dedicated memory. Running Minecraft is rough with that, and because it's integrated into the mobo, it isn't upgradeable. I still highly recommend this machine as a former engineering major during college. Great machine with the i7 and 8GB of RAM, but weak graphics.
