I'm new to this and could really use some advice! I'm looking to upgrade my PC since I'm having a tough time running Minecraft smoothly. I experience frequent FPS drops, and I'm not sure if I should just upgrade my current setup or consider selling it altogether. Here are my specs: Ryzen 5 4500 6-core processor, 16GB RAM, RTX 3050 8GB, 500GB on the C drive, and 2TB SSD. What do you think I should do?

It looks like your setup should be enough for Minecraft unless you're running a lot of mods. Are you using any heavily modded worlds?
Based on what you've got, it seems like your PC is decent but may struggle with Minecraft due to optimization issues rather than hardware limitations. I suggest you first try optimizing your game settings. If that doesn’t help and you're still experiencing lag, consider upgrading your CPU to the Ryzen 5 5600—it’s a solid boost!
Not really, I just have three texture packs on a Server hosted by Aternos.
