Paying the person who can fix my disgusting lag

Happens to me too, but only on my Laptop. Works fine on my pc, but for some reason it's different.

Fuzzy if you have any other apps running at the same time as gmod that may affect it try closing some

I can join fairly quick (~30 seconds).

I think that the lag is caused by the content loading, since that's the message I get when I stop lagging after joining.

As for coinshop, I have no idea what causes that, other than the weird "hey there?" message.

Inventory makes sense because it's loading all the items inside.

Dying is the one that annoys me the most, since I have no idea what causes it, because it doesn't happen every time.

If you think my specs would help, here they are:


Operating System
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1

CPU

Update: Turning off multi-core rendering made it about 20% better when I join the server.

i have had the same problem for awhile now, its what lead to me taking a break from gmod a while back and why i dont play as much anymore. when your game tanks anytime you get in a fight and loading in takes forever where you miss rounds and such its annoying. really hope we can find out what causes this issue. cuz nothing i have tried has done anything. re installing gmod, graphic drivers, windows. putting it on an ssd, lowering settings, and everything else you'd think could be causing it.
also what is the "hey there?" message, i get that to


figured id include my specs as well since i am having the same issue. but we don't have similar parts so i don't think its hardware related

OS: Windows 10 Home
Processor: AMD FX™-8320
RAM: 8 GB DDR3 (not sure speed)
Motherboard: msi 760GM-P34 FX
Grapics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB (my old 750 ti had the same issue so its not card related)
Resolution: 2560 x 1080 x 60 hertz ( my older monitors he same issue so its not them)
storage: 500GB sandisk SSD (not drive related i have tried on 5 different ssd/hdd)

I have no idea what causes this and I'm getting tired of dying because I can't fight back properly.

gmod's installed on my SSD, the ram isn't even half consumed (16gb) and the cpu isn't even close to being overworked. As far as I know it's not server lag as my connection is both Ethernet and above 50mbps on average.  

If anyone knows how to fix this or has an idea as to what could be causing it, I will reward you. The more it helps me, the larger your reward. Rewards will vary from 100 coins to somewhere around 5000 in coins or guns. Any help is appropriated, but not all help will be rewarded.

Thanks!

overclock PC if possible

Test if any better,
If not you narrowed down the problem.
