Questions:

1/ are you playing on WIFI ?
2/ when is the last time you defragged your hard drive?
3/ have you run HWINFO or SPECCY to get a reading on your CPU and GPU temperatures while gaming when you get lag?

x442 U has a 7200 U i5 .... U stands for Ultra low power ... eg it only has 2 cores ... and being an i5 it doesnt have hyperthreading.

your laptop only has 4GB RAM ... and thats not enough to run windows 10 and games at the same time .... youre laptops 'paging' the info is put into your pagefile on HDD and thats SLOW = lag.

the only suggestion i have is: readyboost 16GB on an SD card .... this will make windows put stuff on the SD card (much much faster than HDD) before it puts it into pagefile on HDD. ... this will eliminate some lag, but not all.

Sorry for not replying quickly,
1.) No, I'm playing at the "ethernet"
2.) This is brandnew laptop should it be defragged quickly?
3.) I'll try it later on
