I used to get 20 fps in Minecraft now I install an 8GB ram (what make is 10GB in my computer then system) and I only get 4 FPS? Please Help Me

10GB? so a 2GB stick and a 8GB stick, far from optimal, prob running below spec for either stick, and depending on mobo, prob 4GB in dual and 6 GB running in single channel mode......not a good combo - try w/ just the 8GB stick and let us know what mobo, CPU and DRAM model #s and will see how best to try setting up

Hello, what are your system specifications? is the OS Windows 7, 8.1 or a Mac? What are the specs of your processor and video/graphics card? Also, what was your ram total before upgrading to 10GB? Do you know how much ram your system can take? If you have gone over the maximum limit (say, 8gb is how much it can take and you have 10), it can not run properly and may strain more of the CPU in your machine. If it can handle 16GBs, than its not so much the ram but likely the video card (if you upgraded it or not) or the processor.

One more thing, what quality settings were you running it on? Did you change any game quality settings before and after changing the ram?
