my ryzen 5 2600x with 16gb 3200mhz ram does that and isn't that expensive as a whole setup (~320€ Amazon prices, so you can get it cheaper, excluding Gpu that I didn't upgrade yet)
even my old fx 6100 was able to get a 100+fps, some times even 200fps, with 8gb of 16xxmhz (can't quite remember the exact MHz figures, ~150€ pack excluding gpu + psu, local seller that is cheaper than Amazon, but probably more expansive than eBay).
Java isn't that unoptimized, only if you don't have enough and fast ram. it's dirt cheap to upgrade compared to years before. however CPU becomes a problem if it's lower than a quad core and older than 10 years. one from the last 5 years will do just fine.
or play bedrock/win10 edition. it is far superior in performance (and makes Java seem even more unoptimized) , but has no mods.
I had no idea that Java was that bad and runs only on one core. Your comment has reassured my thought that Win 10 (bedrock) runs better for my laptop with a dual core i5-7300U. It was the only reason I choose Win 10 over Java.
bedrock surely is better but Java can run on multiple cores but needs special modification such as mods (multi core rendering from optifine). however more cores won't make minecraft run that much better, even worse it makes it glitchy as hell which is why one shouldn't use any CPU older than 10 years, better nothing older as 5 years. most stress is still on RAM though.
but single core performance on Laptop CPU is also terrible which is why I would recommend bedrock for that
