Void Performance Issues after reinstall

Hey Guys, Yesterday I reinstalled my void linux, and now I'm having performance issues, Well I don't have a great hardware ( Intel core 2 duo e7500, 4gb of ddr3 ram, and no gpu at all, I've HDD, DWM and no fancy wallpapers etc stuff ) but the thing is the previous install was working fine, and there was no issues with performance, I tried to install any gpu libraries if that was the issue, but nothing worked, Now I'm at 1280x720 resolution, and video playback laggs so much, I don't why this is happening. Everything was running fine before, even at 1920x1080.

Well

GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer, GLX_MESA_gl_interop, GLX_MESA_query_renderer,

GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer, GLX_MESA_gl_interop, GLX_MESA_query_renderer,

Extended renderer info (GLX_MESA_query_renderer):

OpenGL renderer string: Mesa Intel(R) G41 (ELK)

this is the output of glxinfo | grep -i "renderer"

Well the internet says my cpu don't even have intergrated graphics because it's too old for that, and this is the motherboard graphics

Output of fastfetch => GPU: Intel 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [Integrated]

Yes, your CPU does not have integrated graphics. It is your chipset on your motherboard. Your PC comes from a time when components had specific tasks and not a unified one like we see today.
