I've been playing the new Direwolf20 mod pack for a while now. For my birthday, I got a new CPU and motherboard, upgrading from an Intel Core 2 Duo to an Intel i5 CPU and a motherboard that could support it. I also had to upgrade the RAM so it would physically fit into the motherboard, so I now have a single 8 GB stick of RAM. I'm still using the same graphics card, an AMD Radeon R7 card, but it's pretty good and runs nearly everything I've thrown at it so far with minimal issues. (The only game that didn't run perfectly was Fallout 4, and I'm fairly certain that it was CPU issues with that one.)
Normally when I played the pack, it would lag for about 15-20 seconds while it rendered the area, and then I could play with everything going reasonably smoothly. Now when I play, it lags unbelievably and never picks up. This really sucks because I accidentally deleted my old world and am needing to start over. (not a big deal, I learned enough of how the different mods work that I needed to completely overhaul my base from scratch anyways)
You would think that an upgrade like this would speed things up, but it just got worse. I even went into the launcher and bumped up the RAM allocated from 4 GB to 6 GB, but it didn't help any.
Does anybody know what I need to do to get my game working again?

This thread was accidentally put in the wrong board, and I had thought that it would just get removed, so I re-made it in the proper place. I didn't think that it would just get moved to where I put the second one.
Anyways, I had checked and I'm still using the r7 card. It's bottlenecking my PC, though? I had bought the new parts specifically to try and avoid that. Well, I guess I know what to upgrade next time.

Press F3 while in game and make sure you are using the r7 card(that btw, its bottlenecking your whole setup) instead of the igpu
