Why Vulkan?

Most optimization packs tune Minecraft's OpenGL renderer. Vulkan Updated replaces it entirely, cutting CPU overhead and boosting frame rates on hardware where drivers hold OpenGL back (older AMD, Intel iGPUs, Nvidia).

If your GPU is the bottleneck, Vulkan makes a noticeable difference.


Requirements

Minimum Recommended
GPU Vulkan 1.2 (GTX 900+, RX 400+, Intel Arc) Vulkan 1.4 (GTX 1060+, RX 5000+, Arc A-series)
OS Windows 10+ / Linux (kernel 5.11+) Windows 11 / Linux (kernel 7.1, Wayland)
RAM 4 GB 8 GB
Storage HDD NVMe SSD

Check support with vulkaninfo (Linux) or GPU-Z (Windows). On Linux, Wayland outperforms X11. On Windows, keep GPU drivers up to date.
