I have not played minecraft, however, all games I have played have run very smoothly. The system is definitely set up for games. Other games that were laggy on my previous system run great now.

I've never played minecraft on it. It is a good general purpose computer. It's fairly rugged. I've played battlezone 3 on it and starcraft. I'm guessing that if you are playing games that are older than 8 years you should be safe.

I've never run any games on my 2540p, which has an i5-560M, 8GB DRAM, and Intel graphics. However, if I had to guess, I'd say it might run Minecraft but not be a good choice to run it due to the lack of a sophisticated GPU.

Yes. I did play Minecraft with this mac. not lagged at all. You can check out the graphic card information to see if the graphic card is good enough for all your other games. I only played Minecraft on it.

Relatively thin when compared to most laptops today and the same thing for the weight. Gaming for Minecraft will be okay on Moderate settings but games like Crysis 3 and Battlefield will struggle.

Unless you know how to instal a graphics card I wouldn't recommend it. You may get by with WOW or minecraft at low settings but not games like call of duty unless you modify it.

Honestly, don't buy it if you want to play minecraft on it cause minecraft doesn't work on this computer at all you can't even. Download it or even download anything from online sites. Best choice is to just keep looking.

It will play lowend games like mine craft , if you invest in a solid state hard drive it will play games way better

Yes I do think you can because this laptop does have the minimum processing power required to play Minecraft but I must warn you that this laptop's processor is right at the minimum required so you may run into some problems playing Minecraft.

I can't swear it will but its specs appear to exceed minecraft's minimum specs. They do recommend, however, "if you have a laptop with an a built-in (integrated) graphics card, rather than a dedicated card, it is highly suggested that you try the demo before purchase." The X501A has such an integrated card.

Mine runs minecraft on maximum settings pretty alright. For a game like that for sure get a graphics card upgrade and maybe another stick of RAM.

Minecraft will run just fine. It does not require super powerful computer though

i have minecraft for this and it works great. this laptop can even handle complex online games such as half life and halo and left 4 dead. i was very suprised. this is a great gaming laptop for not huge but popular games

Hmm, my daughter is not able to play minecraft on my 6930p - the graphics card says it can't handle it. She does play sims 3 and Zoo Tycoon on it though.

Yes I play leauge of legends and run other stuff at the same time with no lag. Should be able to handle mine craft and play music without lag

Absolutely! I actually bought this for my daughter specifically to play Minecraft because she couldn't access all the features on her iPad. She has had no complaints.
