RaspiFine is a free, lightweight optimization modpack specially made to be run on Raspberry Pis. It consists of the best configs and mods specially optimized for users playing Minecraft on the Raspberry Pi. RaspiFine also includes some carefully chosen Quality-Of-Life mods, to balance the Optimization/Quality scale.
RaspiFine optimizes and finetunes different areas of gameplay. They include:
- Reducing lag & improving framerate.
- Reducing CPU & GPU usage spikes (micro-stuttering).
- Improving server ping & response time.
- Making game boot times quicker.
- Making singleplayer worlds load faster.
- Culling entites & objects that can't be seen.
- Speeding up rendering in gameplay.
- Changing the game resolution.
- Decreasing memory usage.
You should use RaspiFine on your Raspberry Pi if:
- Minecraft is generally laggy and difficult to play.
- Your CPU & GPU usage spikes frequenly during gameplay (micro-stuttering).
- Your ping on servers is not playable, and you see teleporting players.
- It takes a interminable (very long) amount of time to boot Minecraft.
Here's some screenshots to show you the difference:
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS WAS TESTED ON A RASPBERRY PI 5 IN 720P RESOLOUTION WITH THE CPU OVERCLOCKED TO 2.6GHZ 2.8GHZ. DEPENDING ON YOUR MODEL & THE SILICON LOTTERY, YOUR RESULTS MAY VARY. WE DO NOT GURANTEE THAT YOU WILL REACH THE HIGHLIGHTED FRAMERATE, BUT YOU SHOULD USE THIS AS A ROUGH ESTIMATE.
We recommend running RaspiFine on the Raspberry Pi 4 or later, otherwise they may not run stably/and or may have the incorrect GPU drivers to run Minecraft. You can see if you Raspberry Pi is powerful enough to run RaspiFine below:
- Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+
- Raspberry Pi 3 Model B
- Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+
- Raspberry Pi 400
- Raspberry Pi 2 Model B
- Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+

Currently, RaspiFine is not compatible with the server version of Minecraft. We hope to bring this to you in a seperate modpack in the future. If you need to run a Minecraft server on your Raspberry Pi now, I highly recommend checking out Simply Optimized by HyperSoop as their modpack includes similar optimizations and is compatible with
A big shoutout to the mod developers that this modpack consists of, as they work so hard to keep Modrinth running :).
