You should try limiting the power management both the OS does and what the BIOS/UEFI is doing. If you are running Windows there is a special section in the Power Options section. Set it to High performance and then click the Change plan settings. Once that screen loads look for "Change advanced power settings". In there you will find many options that limit how much power your system uses. All of them limit the overall performance of your system.

Your hardware is certainly good for the task.

What exactly do you mean by a lag when switching tools?

If you are doing lots of spot removals, you might try turning off the GPU optimization to see if that helps.
