   Inxi can print out some details of your hardware.   
      
   And there are, potentially, faster OSes than that.   
   But without the right kind of benchmarks (not gamer   
   benches particularly), it makes it harder to associate   
   numbers with the improvement.   
      
   You could for example, try Devuan with XFCE.
