How much RAM for Minecraft?
A rough guide based on your game. When in doubt, start small: you can change tier whenever you want.
| Your game | Recommended RAM |
|---|---|
| Vanilla, up to ~5 players | 4 GB |
| Paper/Fabric or light modpack, 5-10 players | 8 GB |
| Large modpack (ATM, Cobblemon…), 10+ players | 16 GB |
You can change RAM at any time, without losing your save.
Frequently asked questions
Can I install a modpack?
Yes: paste a Modrinth or CurseForge link at creation. We recommend 8 GB+ of RAM for a modpack.
Can my friends join me?
Yes, you get a stable connection address as soon as the server starts; share it with your friends.
Is my world kept?
Yes, for free: it's saved before every shutdown and restored in the next session.
Can my friends on Bedrock (console, mobile, Windows) join?
Not as-is: the server is Minecraft Java, and crossplay needs a bridge (Geyser/Floodgate) that we don't provide and don't support. We do leave the Bedrock port 19132/UDP open though: if you install the bridge yourself through the file manager, it will be reachable. Mind the Java compatibility — the Java version follows the Minecraft version you pick, and recent Geyser builds require a recent one.

How to install a Minecraft modpack on your server
Modrinth or CurseForge, the loader you don’t have to pick, the real JVM heap per tier, and why the first boot takes twenty minutes.
Free Minecraft server: is it actually possible?
Yes, it is — three ways, and what each really costs. The arithmetic behind the limits, and when free is genuinely the right answer.
Hosting a Minecraft server: what are your options?
At home, on a VPS or with an hourly host: the real cost of all three (electricity and VPS prices included), and which one fits your rhythm.
How to make a Cobblemon server (Pokémon in Minecraft)
Cobblemon has no official server. What you actually need: Fabric, Java 21, the pack on both sides — and the real JVM heap behind the tier you pick.
How to run an All the Mods (ATM) server
500 mods: why the 8 GB tier isn’t enough, when it’s the CPU and not the RAM, and the three classic ways an ATM server fails.
