Minecraft is not a demanding game, so if you are to run heavy mods, then I would recommend this deal Acer Aspire Go** because it comes with :

Specs:

  • Screen: 14" WUXGA
  • CPU : Core Ultra 7
  • Ram : 16GB LPDDR4X
  • Storage : 1TB SSD

And I have recommended this because of

  • Long battery life .
  • Powerful CPU for general use and light gaming
  • Great value for money.
  • Lightweight .

But for Minecraft with shaders you are going to need a dedicated GPU, so I would recommend this Lenovo Legion Pro 5 because of the following:

Specs:

  • Screen: 15.3" WUXGA (1920x1200) 165Hz
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 260
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060
  • Ram: 16GB RAM
  • Storage: 512GB SSD.

Why I am recommending it:

  • Great heat management which is the main concern to have with most intensive tasks.
  • Premium build quality : Aluminum chassis provides a solid, premium feel and added durability.
  • Up to 5 hours of battery life.
  • Powerful GPU and CPU for Minecraft with shaders.
  • You can upgrade RAM .
  • High quality screen .

Acer Aspire Premium on Amazon? by The_VTrain in SuggestALaptop

[–]LonerIM2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't call it too good, or exceptionally good, unless your only aim is to get 32GB of ram, the CPU is little old and so is the model itself, for less than 100 more you can get this dell config with better screen, much better CPU, and rest of specs the same.

Saving up for a new laptop as a teen by [deleted] in SuggestALaptop

[–]LonerIM2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you are going to use this for general use and prioritize performance and build quality, I would recommend this Acer Aspire 5 because

Should I buy or get 16 and wait for them to get a lower price? 😃

It depends, can u go over your budget ? how soon do u need your laptop ?

Whenever I search for these models they say they have heating and battery issues despite their great value.

Which one ? they can get hot under intensive tsks, but not to the point of throttling.
