How Much RAM Does an FTB Continuum Server Need?
FTB Continuum's GregTech New Horizons-inspired recipe overhaul puts a real floor on how much RAM you need — see the FTB Continuum pack page for the full mod list. Below are the tiers that actually matter depending on group size and how far your automation has scaled. Finnish players: Minecraft-palvelin hosting is our native-language page. German players: Minecraft-Server mieten covers the same hosting auf Deutsch. Svenska spelare: Hyra Minecraft-server täcker samma hosting på svenska.
6 GB
Bare minimum for a solo player or a very small, casual group. It can run, but GregTech-style multiblock machines and long ore-processing chains leave little headroom — expect slower tick rates once automation scales up.
8 GB
The best starting point for most FTB Continuum servers, and the RAM floor the pack itself recommends. Enough room for several players running active automation lines without constant memory pressure.
12 GB
Safer for a mid-size, active group running multiple parallel GregTech-style processing setups and more loaded chunks across a shared base.
16 GB
Built for 10+ players or a long-running world with sprawling factory bases, deep ore-processing chains, and heavy logistics automation stacking up over time.
