No one can really help you, unless you list FULL SPEC
All you've said is basically, I got a Car, it has a 2.0Litre engine and 17" wheels... - That could be almost any car in the world, and your description of your laptop is exactly like that.

From that, I would say your CPU is very weak and is probably causing the stutter.
You are probably playing games that are CPU intensive.
The only way you can really know is if your CPU is running at 100% - you should run something with an overlay like Afterburner from the www.guru3d.com website
Work out how to install it and get CPU and GPU overlay while playing games

is it only during gaming, or when watching video and music too?

Hmmm it might not be the best but im sure it could run runescape 3 in slow settings...

It should do, but also your HDD could be running slow/background virus checker, so check to see if that's at 100% as well.
You can always use DDU (guru3d) and follow instructions on uninstalling and installing the drivers again.
