I have been having this problem since I got my new computer. My minecraft freezes every 5 or so minutes seemingly random. My computer is asus with a nvidia geforce gt 540m cuda 1gb, an intel inside core i7, windows 7, 8gb of ram and plenty of space, 64 bit. I don't know what to do. When it freezes in ssp it pauses the game but in multiplayer, because its live, keeps going with me not doing anything. can anyone help me?
