Lately I've been having problems with MC, FPS seems to be stuttering, it sometimes reaches 180FPS then drops to 0 FPS
Steps I've done to try and stop the issue:
Reinstall Minecraft.
Reinstall Graphics Drivers.
If I switch to intel HD graphics (Disable my nvidia card) FPS seems to be stable-er but performance drops a lot.
Anyone has an idea to what's causing the problem? My computer works well with other games such as COD, GTA, TF2 and similar games.

So anyone might have any guess on what's causing the problem? as I said from 180FPS it drops to 0FPS and then goes back again and repeats, it makes the game almost unplayable, this happens even while in small spaces where there are no chunks to be rendered, anyone have any thoughts?
Nah I don't think so, I've tried that and it didn't work, plus my computer can handle the highest settings no problem, till a few weeks ago or a month? as I said, it reaches 180FPS, around 70-100 FPS on average
And yes, reduce other settings - reduce the render distance to maybe 8; change graphics from "Fancy" to "Fast".
Close all other applications when playing - including "tray icon" programs.
Make sure you've got the latest graphics driver *from the manufacturer* - don't use 'automatic update'.
If possible, *completely* disable that Intel card, and only use the Nvidia.
Completely uninstall Java, then Reinstall it (from the Sun website only). If you have a 64-bit operating system, you should install 32 bit java first and then 64 bit java. Read that linked page for details.
There's other things too, but see how those go.
1.) Closing other programs definitely makes things better, but as I already said, it only happens now, back then things were stable even with several open programs
2.) I never use windows update to update my drivers
3.) I only enabled my intel graphic card to experiment and see if it works better.
Several weeks ago was an older version of Minecraft. The newer version does make more demands on computers. You've only got the bare minimum of RAM, and your CPU and graphics card are pretty old - so it's not that surprising that it's starting to struggle.
I've started playing minecraft since beta 1.9, and only since around a month or few weeks back did it show any problems.
I mainly use 1.6 because there are compatibility issues with my server on 1.7 which I am currently fixing
Singleplayer seems to have no problem at all with stable fps of around 70-120.
But on servers the fps tends to drop and go up crazily and rapidly ranging from 0-180fps max
I know my gear can handle mc 1.7 just fine, the last time i've used 1.7 on singleplayer, it was still ranging around that 70-120 fps, with just a minor fps drop.
I know my gear is somewhat outdated (most of which from 2011) and that it's only an entry level PC ( was on a budget back then ) But I'm absolutely certain it can handle 1.7
Steps I've done to try and stop the issue:
- Reinstall Minecraft.
- Reinstall Graphics Drivers.
- If I switch to intel HD graphics (Disable my nvidia card) FPS seems to be stable-er but performance drops a lot.
