Description

I put together the best possible combination of mods to make forge 1.20.1 run as best as possible. This is also just a good template for making large modpacks run better so I wanted it easily accessible to those who don't know what their doing when putting together their modpacks, or how to optimize them

description_32674e85-df84-46a9-9907-ef2e15f1510c.png

Basic information for the type of frames I'm hitting when running this modpack by itself without shaders, but of course the more mods you add the more that number is just gonna go down. :P

So I hope anyone who sees this can find some use for it, and if anyone has any recomendations for how to optimize it even better please tell me, it would be much appreciated. ^-^
