How to make MineCraft use your GPU

  1. While minecraft is running, open Task Manager (ctrl shift esc) and right click on what should be "OpenJDK Platform binary" and click "Open File Location" image
  2. It should highlight javaw.exe and in my case be in C:\Program Files (x86)\Minecraft Launcher\runtime\java-runtime-alpha\windows-x64\java-runtime-alpha\bin
  3. Copy the file path
  4. Open 'Graphics Settings'
  5. Click Desktop app then Browse
