Will this laptop run minecraft?

ONe of the reviews was from a Mom who said she purchased it for her teenager who had been using it for Minecraft and gave it two thumbs up. Looks like it will. That's what I'm looking for as well.

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

YES! i have 12 gigs of ram now, thinking of upgrading again to 16. Also should be able to run modern games. Has no problem running minecraft!

Yes, my grand-son plays Minecraft on my computer nearly every day. It should work fine for you. I have had no problems with it.

Yes it will, smoothly. Minecraft is not a really demanding game graphic wise so yes.

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

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

It might i dont know, I guess depends on what specifications and hardware you put in it, anything will run Minecraft then.Sorry

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.

Ignore the previous two comments. Minecraft is not a high requirement game. It runs fine on a 2007 imac, this will handle it just fine.Recommended Requirements:CPU: Intel Core i3 or AMD Athlon II (K10) 2.8 GHzRAM: 4GBGPU: GeForce 2xx Series or AMD Radeon HD 5xxx Series (Excluding Integrated Chipsets) with OpenGL 3.3HDD: 1GBLatest release of Java 7 from java.com

The I3-4130 has 4400 Graphics built into it and Minecraft indicates that it needs at least Intel GMA 950 to run, so this should work, though I am not sure how high you can run it at and I cannot claim to have run Minecraft on the built in graphics of this chip. I have a separate graphics card installed. One thing to keep in mind as long as you don't run into any driver issues with Linux is that the onboard graphics takes some of the system RAM and I am not sure if you'll be able to adjust the amount of memory dedicated to graphics. On a Windows system, I'd recommend at least 8 gigs to avoid problems. Linux might be able to run and share memory with less, I don't know offhand. Good luck with this.

Im not for sure bout minecraft cause i dont play it but i dont see why it wouldnt, if anything u might need to do like i did and buy an 2gb ram stick which doesnt cost much. Some bigger games like that require more ram space to play

I have this laptop and while it plays it ok, minecraft is very cpu intensive.expect 60-70 fps with optifine

Yes but it's not the best with minecraft it's more important to get a strong Cpu. 3.5 ghz and 4 cores c:

I don't have Minecraft to test, but I was able to play Final Fantasy XIV and Diablo 3 at low/medium settings with an acceptable framerate.

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.

I have minecraft and it runs great not for big programs or big game but overall is a good laptop
