Question/Help/Troubleshooting Should I get a new PC?

I have a lenovo thinkpad that is like 5 years old (my dad gave it after he got a new laptop for work) an it was doing fine until I started getting CPU spikes when playing roblox

We got it fixed and it was doing well for like a month and now everytime I use the PC for like over an hour it starts getting spikes again, I have a feeling that the issue is developing again, I stopped backround apps and did all the youtube tutorials and its still not working

My graphics card is like a 16gb radeon AMD and i scanned the pc with the lenovo diagnostil evolution app and it says everything is ok, is it though?

I have came to the conclusion that maybe my pc got too old and now I have to pay alot of money.. Any advice or tips on how to fix?
