Speed run not possible on decent laptop

I've also only got 4 chest drops that whole run so it should have been an ideal speed run. My lag is kinda bad periodically but usually blotchy slow a nice bit in between a few seconds of running normal. I knew lag was holding me back but it shows just how much it's doing so right now. On this run my idol count was 5649 and this should be no problem for me, I easily have all the other campaigns done but it's quite discouraging knowing this one is out of my reach. In a bid to try and solve it I am showing some PC specs. How ever I've tried several methods that supposedly works in solving flash issues but none helped me at all. Here's the specs: http://prntscr.com/89azr4, http://prntscr.com/89b1cl, http://prntscr.com/89b1n9, http://prntscr.com/89bgz4 If further information is required that's not unreasonable please feel free to try and lend me an hand cause I've been suffering with this handicap of lag my whole time playing!

I've found a workaround to remove most of the lag while doing the solo campaign. I've tried to solo the timed campaign with werewolf. This was almost enough to reach the lvl 150. While i couldn't do better than lvl 135 with full team. I'll try again today. But the problem is still there especially if there are some other challenge like that in the future. edit : i've made it by soloing with werewolf. Restart pc, browser, no disturbance, nothing else running ... well 1h of 3 cumuled gold boost and 4-5 delorean at the end to keep insta-kill. I had 2 min ahead to reset.
