Sorry for the late reply.  You might have something running in the background that's taking up your CPU (virus scanner, malware, etc.)  I would run task manager and sort the processes by CPU usage and see if anything jumps up to the top while you're lagging in the game.

I know I was having this problem on Call of Duty and I found that it was due to an overheating issue so you might want to check that too.
