That&#8217;s 38 microseconds frametime on average!<br \/>\n![FPS to the Trash pre-release for 1.8.9 + OptiFabric](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/9143d5e72ccd7860e32aed1e1a33f21d8106feb9.png)<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;FPS to the Trash&#8221; is based on a simple philosophy: Why bother updating the screen 1000 times per second, when your monitor&#8217;s refresh rate is just 60 Hz? It turns out such updates are quite costly, and severely reduces the FPS.<\/p>\n<p>This mod fixes that problem by decoupling the display updates from the frame rate. The update rate can be configured separately in the mod menu.<\/p>\n<p>Generally, better hardware yields higher FPS uplift, and in many cases, the bottleneck is the GPU. Here are the benchmarks done by myself, with several other optimization mods:<br \/>\n&#8211; Ryzen 7 4800H, GeForce GTX 1650M: 384 -> 1395 FPS (3.6x uplift)<br \/>\n![FPS1](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/64e5fcce3c7b5a89b7b95b54e8525b12e9fc88c2.png)<br \/>\n&#8211; Snapdragon 680 (4*A73 + 4*A53, Adreno 610): 208 -> 251 FPS (20.7% uplift)<br \/>\n![FPS2](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/d0d9e1b53647d5a54b085c5693f3196cb56afa13.png)<\/p>\n<p>## Known issues:<br \/>\n&#8211; Removing FPS cap can cause the game to stutter badly when the GPU is fully utilized. A known workaround is to enable VSync. (Please note that VSync will not cap your frame rate as it&#8217;s decoupled from the display updates. To cap the frame rate, use the frame cap slider.)<\/p>\n<p>## Mod compatibility (still updating&#8230;)<br \/>\nThis mod does NOT work with:<br \/>\n&#8211; VulkanMod<\/p>\n<p>## Why is this mod named &#8220;FPS to the Trash&#8221;?<br \/>\nFPS to the moon, but most of the frames are thrown away&#8230; you got the idea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Throw away display updates your monitor can&#8217;t process for more FPS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"fps-to-the-trash","_minecraft_project_id":"vT8LPeNw","_minecraft_author":"notahero04","_minecraft_license":"CC0-1.0","_minecraft_downloads":40470,"_minecraft_follows":63,"_minecraft_client_side":"required","_minecraft_server_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"fps-to-the-trash.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":65810,"_minecraft_version_count":6,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-16T12:16:57.610516Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2024-07-07T06:11:37.785340Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2024-11-11T09:58:17.413773Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/fps-to-the-trash","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":0,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-04T05:40:14+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"16279bc7dcf64c1c05595cab0665b600","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[43,97,89],"mod_loader":[99],"minecraft_version":[115,116,117,118,119,120,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,36,60,93,94,101,102,62,37,73,74,38,78,79,80],"class_list":["post-72693","mod","type-mod","status-publish","hentry","mod_category-cursed","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_loader-fabric","minecraft_version-1-15","minecraft_version-1-15-1","minecraft_version-1-15-2","minecraft_version-1-16","minecraft_version-1-16-1","minecraft_version-1-16-2","minecraft_version-1-16-3","minecraft_version-1-16-4","minecraft_version-1-16-5","minecraft_version-1-17","minecraft_version-1-17-1","minecraft_version-1-18","minecraft_version-1-18-1","minecraft_version-1-18-2","minecraft_version-1-19","minecraft_version-1-19-1","minecraft_version-1-19-2","minecraft_version-1-19-3","minecraft_version-1-19-4","minecraft_version-1-20","minecraft_version-1-20-1","minecraft_version-1-20-2","minecraft_version-1-20-3","minecraft_version-1-20-4","minecraft_version-1-20-5","minecraft_version-1-20-6","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-7"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
