Getting Minecraft not to lag?

I have a laptop with windows 8.1 and 1.6 usable GB of RAM. So i decided to try out the demo of it to see how good/bad it would run. After messing with some of the settings a little i got it to run fairly smoothly, except about every 3 minutes or so it freezes for like 30 seconds. So before i buy the game i was wondering if there's a way that i could get it to stop doing that or is tit just my machine.

Was the Razer Ouroboros a good choice?

I'm trying to get better at cs: go but I'm finding my current mouse to be a bit jumpy, and inconsistent with the tracking.

So for Christmas, I'm getting the Razer Ouroboros. At first, I thought this mouse was amazing for me due to its ambidextrous design, however, seeing many 12 year old children playing minecraft with it has made me doubt it slightly.

Was this mouse a good choice to play Cs: go?

Is the Sapphire Radeon R9 270X 4GB an acceptable substitute for the Gigabyte R9 270X 2GB?

I'm supposed to be buying parts to build a Minecrafting (playing AND recording) computer for my kids, but the guy who's building it didn't give me a list of parts. So I'm going off of this list: http://elitegamingcomputers.com/how-to-get-a-computer-for-minecraft-without-spending-a-ton-of-money/ (the $500 build). But the video card listed, the Gigabyte, isn't available via Amazon Prime, and I really need it to be. I noticed the dimensions are different, but the Sapphire is actually smaller, so I don't imagine that would be an issue. I just don't know about the differences in performance and such, since one is a 2GB & the other s a 4GB. Some of the articles I read said that a good graphics card is the most important part of the build, so does that mean that the Sapphire would be better? I really have no idea what I'm doing, and could use the help.

Gun shaking when I shoot?

So I have recently got back into shooting though I have shot before, my hands just shake when shooting pistols and it really messes up my aim. I was wondering if there are any ways to stop my hands from shaking or reduce it.

New to Minecraft. Any beginner advice?

I actually just finished the demo. I'm planning on actually buying it tomorrow. Anyway, as I played the demo, I basically just got wood, sand, dirt, and stuff like that. I eventually made a work bench, but I was not sure where to place it… I'm just so confused. I know, I'm completely a noob, but I honestly don't play games. I mainly want to try it out so I can play with my boyfriend because he loves it and we can Skype and play together. He's like… A gaming master and I just… Well suck at games. And honestly, I enjoyed playing the demo, so it's not just because of him. So any beginner advice would be appreciated.
