Sorry, this is most likely the wrong section but I don't know where I should put this.

My computer is really laggy when I play something as simple as minecraft,
these are my specs on the computer:

Windows 8

64 bits

AMD A6-4400M APU with Radeon HD Graphics 2.70 GHz

8 GB RAM

And it's a laptop

I can not afford anything at the moment and I really just want a good gaming computer.
Thanks!

Well unfortunately without purchasing a good gaming PC, youll be without one til then. That is a VERY underpowered laptop. For future reference, you cant just buy the cheapest laptop you can find and expect it to play anything remotely resembling a modern game. There is a reason that $700 video cards exist.

This computer should be able to play Minecraft. Try cleaning out some programs and I remember a mod i used in Minecraft called Optifine, it was a big help, maybe try that.
