So I just bought a R9 290X and when I try to play minecraft, I have a small amount of FPS. Then, when I switch for example to Google Chrome, and reswitch back to minecraft, e stops working.
How can I fix this?
PS.: No, I didn't buy this GPU to play minecraft, I also play other games, such as Battlefield 4.

Full specs?Run fraps, tell us what your average fps is in MC.
I can click F3 to see my FPS. The FPS aren't that low normally, but they are lower in a certain spot.
It crashed when I switch pages. My PC is good enough for the game by the way. I7 3770K OC to 4,3Ghz, 16GB ram, 250SSD.
EDIT: I just realized that I don't even have to be ingame (I can be on the menu, where you choose Single or Multiplayer) for the game to crash.

Be more specific, does the game crash whilst your playing, or when you switch to another window? If it's switching to another window, I believe that often happens with some games, the solution would be to either play in windowed mode, or see if you can somehow run the game in borderless window mode.
Also, why do you think 250fps is low?

I was specific. I'll explain it a little better anyway. I get 250fps tops with a R9 290x, whilst with a GTX 560ti, which is worse, I could get up to 400fps. In a certain area, that has a lot of item frames and a lot of different blocks, I would get 60-100fps with the GTX 560Ti, whilst I get 15-30fps with my R9 290x. The game crashes when I switch from minecraft to something like google chrome, and then switch back to minecraft. I do not play on fullscreen, since minecraft isn't something that I think requires that. In my opinion, a R9 290x shouldn't do this, and should get WAY more fps.

MSI AB should have a small monitor window that should show the core and memory clocks.
When you are idling with no game or video playing it should be at its "idle" clock rating.
Now when you start Minecraft it *should* increase its clock.
If it doesn't then you are experiencing that bug. There are several work aorunds but first
you need to determine if that i s the cause

Ok that's the problem. You are stuck in low clocks.
There is a guide here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/off-topic/computer...
Its worth a try.
Ignore the people saying it is dangerous. They know nothing about computer hardware
since 1 MHz is within the normal tolerance of the clock generators

Are you using the same texture packs and shaders as you were on your old Graphics card? Maybe you need different or updated versions of them. Also, if you are using the older versions of shaders and texture packs on a new version of Minecraft, than that could cause it to crash. You have to use the right mods with the right version of minecraft. Try taking out all mods and texture packs out of the minecraft game folders in %appdata% folder and seeing if it still crashes. Also, have you tried a clean install of the game?

I didn't change anything on minecraft. Everything I had when I used the GTX 560 Ti I have now. The only difference is that it crashes now, and it didn't before. As I said before, it even crashes without anything added to the game (mods, texture packs, etc)
EDIT: I changed the .minecraft name and I'll test it now.

Allocating more RAM will help with that. Shaders take up a lot more RAM than the basic minecraft settings. Before you click "Play," click on "edit profile." At the bottom of the Profile Editor message box, you will see "JVM Arguments:" Change it to "-Xmx2G" to allocate 2gb of ram. Than try it out and see if your FPS changes.

Well from my personal experience with shaders in minecraft, allocating more ram helped my lag issue.Eh. I don't know what's going on. I am getting the same exact (if not somewhat worse) frames per second that I got when my FX 6300 was on stock clocks and I had an HD 7850. Now I have my FX 6300 OC'ed to 4.4ghz and an R9 290 and I can barely break 120 at max.
