X1 Carbon Gen 5 Performance (feddit.it)

I recently purchased a 2nd hand Thinkpad X1 Carbon with i7-7600U, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD and a 1440p screen. I installed EndeavorOS on it and I noticed, in plasma 6, that the scroll in Firefox is a bit sluggish; after I installed hyprland and, with a lot of effect active like blur, it does feel sluggish too. Is that normal for this type of hardware? Is there some settings I could tweak to improve the performances?

I have a gen 6, it's pretty good on popos, but it's not outstanding. However, it's an older machine. Same specs. Keen to follow this to see if any good suggestions appear. Best of luck. Lovely hardware. Best keyboard I've ever used.
