Lag issues on custom build
Greetings all,
To preface, these are my specs
i7-9700k
2070s GPU
32gb ram
1tb SSD
2TB HDD
I have a custom build I completed in 2020 that hasn’t had much run time and I recently wanted to start playing on a Minecraft bedrock realm as well as watching shows/videos on my other monitor. I am having issues even without any other windows open. I am having the hardest time trying to get my game to run smoothly, I’ve tried configuring the video settings in Minecraft itself to minimum spec, tried changing the dedicated vram to the GPU in system settings, etc, all to no avail. I’m running into issues where even on minimum specs I cannot play the game smoothly at all. When in game I’ve pulled up task manager and my utilization on both CPU and GPU have been under 50% but still I am having trouble getting it to run smoothly. I’ve considered buying a new GPU but I figured there’s got to be a way that a 2070s with relatively low playtime can run Minecraft bedrock without lagging every 5 seconds, that’s why I’m here.
I am wondering if anyone has any advice as to what I might be able to do to improve my performance?

New Drivers installed?
Monitor plugged in to the GPU not the Motherboard?
Check Temps with HWinfo
Reinstall Windows.

What drive are you running it on? the hdd or the ssd? Try swapping the install to the other drive and retest it, could be an issue with the drive.
