    Plenty of companies can resolder laptop cpu's. Here in Beijing, I took my wife's laptop to a local market and they swapped a soldered on cpu in less than an hour. You just need the right machine.

    What's the laptop?
    What i3?
    What i5?
    It might be better to just save up for a new laptop depending on how old that is...upgrading a potato often isn't worth it, just a waste of money.

    This. 
     
    Before you start on emulation again; emulation sucks and you're not going to get useful performance.
     
    You could try to run Windows RT though, that runs on ARM natively, but I do think it'd be kind of pointless.

    Hey fellas,
                    today i am here with a new idea.I live in india and internet quality is very poor even my internet connection doesn't reaches above 50 kb/s on 4G .I came up with an idea that what if my cellular network send me packets compressed by 25% and it decompresses as soon as it reaches my device from which i am trying to access data .As,newer smartphone and computers are coming with more powerful processor and faster memory this would give me a faster internet connection.

    The content you're downloading would have to be compressible.  It won't be, because it already is compressed by the source at much stronger compression than 25%
    For example, just open developer tools for this page and inspect the headers ... I'll show you an example with this forum main page, see the image below :
     
    At the top you can see that the browser transferred 26.34 KB , just the code of the main page of the forum, without images or anything like css style sheets, fonts etc. Those 26.34 KB decompress into 199.71 KB ... so it's compressed to ~13.8% of original size.
     
    You can see on the bottom right, the request my browser says... Accept encoding: gzip, deflate, br   .... those 3 are compression methods. gzip is similar to the archives that end in .gz , deflate is the compression in classic zip files,  and br is an algorithm called brotli , which is specially made for html pages and code with tags, compressing very well.
    At the top, you can see that the forum server replied saying that it knows to compress using brotli (it probably supports all three, but brotli being the best it chose to go with that) and then sent the content compressed.
     
    So the VPN won't be able to compress more, majority of websites already compress. What about the rest ... well, images are already compressed, music is already compressed, videos are already compressed ... maybe you'd compress some stylesheets (css files) and some random html files, but that would probably be under 10% of anything you do online.
     
    Also worth noting that most websites are now encrypted, so it's a bit more difficult for something to be between you and the website you're trying to load and modify things like compressing pages and so on.
    If you want faster internet, I'd suggest disabling pictures and using an adblock or even going as far as to disabling Javascript (but a lot of websites would break if you disable Javascript these days)
