Minecraft: The 5 most beautiful raytracing worlds


This article was written in cooperation with OMEN and NVIDIA®.

In our guide to the most beautiful worlds for Minecraft RTX you will learn:

  • How to install the worlds
  • What are the most beautiful worlds you can download
  • Which OMEN notebooks don't break a sweat even with the ray tracers

Without mods, Minecraft looks pretty simple and runs even on underpowered hardware. However, this changes as soon as you install the Minecraft RTX update and one of the new resource packs.

Not only do they make Minecraft look very impressive, but they also demand a lot from your hardware. That's why we've not only picked out the best resource packs and worlds for you, but also show you which OMEN notebooks with NVIDIA® graphics cards can easily run Minecraft RTX.

All information about the ray tracing update of Minecraft and how you can already participate in the beta can be found in our big Minecraft RTX guide.

The best OMEN gaming laptops with NVIDIA® graphics cards

OMEN offers all sorts of powerful laptops that are perfect for hardware-hungry gaming. And yes, with the RTX update and resource packs, even an otherwise tame Minecraft suddenly becomes a heat-hungry hardware hog.

The first two notebooks both come with a 15-inch display, an Intel Core™ i7 processor, and an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 2070 and still cost under 2,000 Euros.

The HP OMEN 15-DH0310NG comes in a slim and pretty design.

The OMEN gaming notebooks are not only suitable for the latest games, they also come with a thin and light design that makes most gaming notebooks from other manufacturers green with envy.

An NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 2070 and an Intel Core™ i7 processor aren't enough for you? Of course, HP OMEN also offers something for real hardware enthusiasts:

The OMEN 15-DG0350NG has an Intel Core™ i9 processor, an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 2080 and 16 GB of RAM on board. Thus, you are also well prepared for upcoming blockbusters on the PC - like Death Stranding or Horizon Zero Dawn.
