Alright, so I am used to reinstalling my system at least once a year, but this time it is not possible for me. The Win7 Pro was installed on this laptop in late 2012.
The problem has developed slowly over the months and is best described as sudden lagspikes during fullscreen applications. They are short, but tend to happen every ten or so seconds, sometimes with longer or shorter intervals between them.
I do not have an antivirus- I only install it every few months for periodic checkups, since the laptop is rather shait and I do not tend to visit problematic sites anyway.
Is there a way I could simply give you the list of my background services so you can point out any problematic ones? I haven't really installed a lot of stuff over the years and I do use CCleaner every month or so.
I'm stumped.

Because multimedia programs require more resources, the Windows networking stack implements a throttling mechanism to restrict the processing of non-multimedia network traffic to 10 packets per millisecond.

By default, the value for the NetworkThrottlingIndex registry entry is set to 10. When the NetworkThrottlingIndex registry entry does not exist, the behavior resembles the default behavior. Network throttling can be completely turned off by setting the value to FFFFFFFF (hexadecimal). You must restart the computer after you make a change to the value of the NetworkThrottlingIndex registry entry.
I'll bookmark that one, but I am talking about FPS spikes, rather than Ping.

This sounds a lot more like CPU Throttling to me. Check your temps first using software like SpeedFan and simular. When was the wast time when you opened your laptop and cleaned it? It must be cleaned at least once per year and if you use it a lot then even twice.

Log CPU clocks and temperatures (I recommend CPU-Z and HWMonitor) when running full screen apps and check memory usage with the resource monitor program. That should give you more info on whats happening.
Also, you can check for any unfamiliar processes hogging your CPU or memory with the resource monitor. Consider it a human antivirus scan
