How can I get more FPS on Minecraft with this PC? (Linux Mint) [java]

I've been trying to get the most FPS I can out of my PC for Minecraft, especially 1.16.1, and 26.3 and I'm wondering if there's anything I can change on Linux/Minecraft to improve it.

My PC:

  • i7-7700 (4 cores / 8 threads, 3.6GHz, up to 4.2GHz)
  • Intel HD Graphics 630 integrated graphics
  • 16GB RAM
  • Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon
  • Kernel 6.8.0-137
  • X11
  • Mesa 25.2.8 / i915 + Iris
  • 1920x1080 60Hz display
  • Java 21 (Temurin)
  • CPU governor is currently powersave

I'm already using Sodium, Lithium, FerriteCore, ImmediatelyFast, Entity Culling, and Sodium Extra.

I'm mainly interested in Minecraft 1.16.1, but I've also been playing newer versions. I know the integrated graphics are obviously not amazing, but I'm wondering if there's anything I'm missing that could get me more FPS.

I've already messed around with render distance/settings and different performance mods. I'm also curious whether changing the resolution from 1920x1080 would actually make a noticeable difference on this hardware.

Is there anything I should change in Linux, Java, Minecraft settings, or anywhere else to get more FPS?

Thanks!
