whenever i play a game (mostly minecraft) i am always getting laggy and sometimes i dont get any lag for a few seconds. When the games are loading up, the cpu (on task manager) uses around 100% of its capability however when i am playing the game, it lags out so much however it uses only LESS than a quarter of the processor and when i set the priority to real time it doesn't change. Is there something limiting the use cos it wont use over 25%. I have also cleaned the inside of my computer on the same day i posting this and im getting on average around 30C so it has nothing to do with overheating

This was before all the lag:

You need a graphics card for gaming, because games use mostly graphics and not too much processing is involved.

The intergrated graphics are not good enough to run games. So you might have to spend 150$ ish to get a new graphivs card.
