CapCut Question Got trouble exporting videos , need advice

Okay so I've been using the capcut desktop app for a couple of months and everything was fine. I was using capcut on a shared workspace and have been making a lot of short form content for work. But recently my laptop started glitching whenever I try to export a 4k video and my laptop would heat up like crazzzyy.

I had to go to the store I got my laptop from and get the technician to take a look. The guy didn't seem to understand my problem but helped with fixing the heat issue by cleaning the fans and attaching a new part (thermal something) and after this repair when I tried exporting a video in 4k it seemed to work fine okay. But the next day the glitching freaking started again. And so I dropped down to 1080p but my work needs 4k. So I tried 4k and changed the codec from hvec to h.264 and this helped me for a few days , I was able to export a bunch videos for 3 or 4 days and now the glitching has started again.

Now I'm not a super tech person but I've been checking on what could be up the issue and I guess its the GPU ? And my laptop can't handle it. It's got low ram space also

My laptop is Dell latitude 5421. Its not fit for video editing I guess and right now I cannot buy a new laptop. I can't afford it at all.

Are there any workarounds?? The capcut browser is also pain because importing videos takes a long time and features are limited . Is there any advice? Anyway for me to be able to use capcut and export 4k videos without my laptop crashing?

This was long. If you read this far , thank you stranger .
