El Capitan not compatible, but maybe there’s a newer OS that is?

Here are specs on my computer – OS X Version 10.5.8

 

Model Name: MacBook

  Model Identifier: MacBook5,2

  Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo

  Processor Speed: 2 GHz

  Number Of Processors: 1

  Total Number Of Cores: 2

  L2 Cache: 3 MB

  Memory: 4 GB

 

It is an older Mac.  It is starting to run super slowly – I get the rainbow cursor for so long when I try doing most things I lose interest.  My brother suggested upgrading the OS may help.  I checked, and it’s not compatible with the newest El Capitan, but perhaps there is an older version that I could upgrade to that would help?  Suggestions?  Anything else I could do to help out this old computer, allowing it to run more efficiently?  Thanks!
