Strange lag, but why?
Ok so within the past couple of days i have been experiancing very strange lag on single player aswell as multiplayer.
My pc is brand new running a i7 quad 3.8 ghz OC, 16gb ram and a gtx 560 gpu.
So im sure you will agree my pc is well overpowered for minecraft. Its running all other games like dues ex on there highest settings with no problems, its even running fraps perfectly, so why minecraft?
I have tried completly reinstalling it, changing the settings to the lowest and yet its still having lag issues.
Can anyone explain, free cookies if you can.
Thanks.

A little more information on your Minecraft. What texture pack are you using? What res is it? Is it like small lag spikes or overall lag? And what do you mean by "lag" I run MC at 20 FPS and the only time I consider myself to be lagging is when I go below 3 FPS.

Most likely the lag spike of death. If you don't know what it is google it. There are a couple of fixes for it. The main one being the mod named Optifine. It has a fix built into it and it also helps with FPS. If that doesn't work I think there is a wiki on the lag spike of death with solutions (might be wrong I dunno) Sometimes LSOD won't go away. Nobody knows why it's in the game or what causes it but it happens and it's just there. It's like the creepy neighbour that mows you're lawn and then steals your lawn mower.

Lag Spike of Death=Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
How? Well we can use algebraic formula's to figure that out. First, create the formula, like so.
LSOD=LSWD
Then subtract on both sides...
LSOD=LSWD
__-O____-W
LSD=LSD
As you can see they both are the same, LSD. Wait... Umm.
