Can I Run Minecraft: Java Edition on GeForce RTX 3060 Ti?
Yes — Minecraft: Java Edition runs on the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. Expect at least 60 FPS at 1080p on Fancy (publisher's target), native resolution: this card reaches the publisher's target, and past it the processor, not the graphics card, sets the frame rate. It clears the recommended GPU (Radeon RX 5600 XT), so you have headroom for higher settings or 1440p.
