How do I get rid of my Lag?

Brand new Asus laptop, not too many programs downloaded on it.... but I still have extreme lag when I play games on it. I have tried turning down the color depth and resolution while playing the game, but it doesnt do much if anything at all..

Help? I thought an Asus was made for gaming...

    1: You are trying to game on the internet through a wireless home network. GET WIRED

    2: You have budget internet at less than 1 mbps. GET BETTER INTERNET

    laptops are not made for gaming, if your lappy doesn't have a dedicated card it wont be any good at running graphical programs like games or blender or even photoshop. In all likely hood this is the case as dedicated cards take up more space and use more power, therefore unless you get an expensive lappy (desktop replacement) you wont get one. Alienware is made for gaming:

    What can i say you should have done some research.
