Your CPU is a 4C/8T 47W one. Not bad for being in a laptop. My Thinkpad for example is a 2C/4T 25W one, from the 7xxxU series. Which doesn't feel snappy at all.

Your CPU would probably be handily beat by a recent 4-core or 6-core Ryzen, and it would be done so while outputting far less heat and fan noise.

From geekbench you CPU has: 780 single-core, 2784 multi-core. For a 25W Ryzen 5 4500U: 1079 single-core, 4260 multi-core.
