Hi greetings,

recently i feel like my macbook air 13 inch 2020 (i5 ver) is getting laggy and hot even i am just surfing net using safari, and theres some random flickering effect while i am playing games, out of curiosity i ran a geekbench & compute test few times just now and got the same low score result, is there any problem with my machine?

if i am not wrong, this model should be getting at least 2900+ multi score & 8000 above compute score

Nope the score are quite correct. maybe you have something running, check with Activity Monitor.
Air 2020 i5 multiscore = 2646, single core = 1056
 
Have you looked in Activity Monitor to see how busy your CPU is?

my machine used to have the score of 2800+, i ran the test after i restart actually so nothing really running in background except window server or kernel task
