The Intel Core i5-8550U processor has 4 cores with Hyper-Threading (8
threads):

If your laptop has hardware that requires proprietary firmware, I very
much doubt that the firmware in question will ever be open-sourced.
Without the proprietary firmware, the best case is reduced
functionality using reverse-engineered drivers -- e.g. NVIDIA and
Nouveau.  Wi-Fi adapters requiring proprietary firmware tend to be
non-functional without such.


Either keep your laptop and install the proprietary firmware, or sell it
and get something with hardware that does not require proprietary firmware.
