Gamers looking to maximize visuals and performance in modded Minecraft may pair the Complementary Reimagined shaders with their RTX 4080 Super. Today, this test leverages the Neoforge mod loader and uses Sodium for optimization, along with Iris for shader support. The Reimagined 5.4 shaders are a lightweight alternative to the Unbound ones. Gamers can push for extremely high FPS with longer render and draw distances without issues.

Start with the recommended settings below as a baseline, and customize them as needed. If your mod pack recommends using Optifine or another mod loader, this guide won’t be much of a help.

If you support the Faithful resource pack on Patreon, you can easily run the 1024x texture pack at native 4K resolution.
