About this Modpack
Factorial: Nvidium
Optimization built for those who refuse to compromise.

Factorial: Nvidium performed 1,479% (15.79x) Better than the Base Game
Before you begin: The Factorial team HIGHLY recommends users to allocate more RAM to the game, this helps the game to perform better interms of performance.
Factorial: Nvidium is the cutting-edge version of the Factorial modpack, built around Nvidium as its core rendering enhancement. Designed exclusively for NVIDIA GPU users, this version pushes Minecraft's rendering performance further than any other version of Factorial can.
Why Nvidium?
Nvidium leverages NVIDIA's mesh shader technology to completely bypass Minecraft's traditional chunk rendering pipeline. The result is a dramatic reduction in GPU draw calls and a massive FPS uplift, especially at high render distances where other solutions start to struggle. If you have the hardware to run it, nothing else comes close.
Low-End & High-End Friendly
Factorial: Nvidium shines brightest on mid to high-end NVIDIA hardware, but it's not just for enthusiasts. Even on older NVIDIA cards that support mesh shaders, the reduced rendering overhead means more frames and smoother gameplay. High-end setups will see the biggest gains, especially when pushing high render distances or dense environments.
What's Included?
Nvidium sits on top of Sodium, so you get all the benefits of Sodium's rendering engine plus Nvidium's mesh shader acceleration on top. The rest of the pack fills in the gaps: memory, lighting, entity performance, all ready to go out of the box.
Compatibility
- ✅ NVIDIA GTX 16 series and above (mesh shader support required)
- ✅ Includes full Sodium + companion mod suite
- ⚠️ Iris Shaders disable the Nvidium rendered, causing a massive reduction in framerate.
- ⚠️ AMD/Intel GPU users should use a different Factorial version. Nvidium will not activate on non-NVIDIA hardware.
