Bad Lag Makes Multiplayer Unplayable
My PC Specs:
- Windows 10
- Intel i5-6400 CPU @ 2.7 GHz
- 12 GB RAM
- GeForce GTX 950
I am playing java version of MC.
I am not getting any FPS Lag. In single player, everything runs at the desired level of FPS + quality. However, on all (larger) multiplayer servers (Hive, Hypixel, Mineplex, etc.) I am lagging (FPS is stable) very frequently. I generally face 2-20 second lag spikes every few minutes.
There are two reasons I do not think this is a simple case of bad connection or ISP problem:
1) I have absolutely no problems with lag playing other games such as Overwatch and Rainbow 6 Siege.
2) My laptop, which has worse specs, does not experience this problem for Minecraft, and I am playing on the same Wifi connection.
So far, I have:
- Updated my graphics drivers
- Gotten a clean reinstallation of Java
- Increased the RAM allocation to Minecraft profile to 3 GB
- Used the command: ipconfig /flushdns
- Tried an OptiFine Profile
- Set javaw process priority to high
- Tried playing on different versions of Minecraft
None of these have solved the issue. Any help figuring this out is appreciated. Thanks

I often end up "timing out". When I don't time out,
it appears my input is being registered - for example If I walk during the lag spike (where every other player is frozen, chat is frozen, brocks that I break in the lobby don't restore, etc.) I will end up in the location I intended when the lag spike ends.

Two things I know that Increases my FPS,
If your using optifine turn ALL animations of or at least as many as possible
If your not using optifine, set particals to minimal and turn clouds off
