do you have a specific model number or are you able to get the full firmware number from within the settings menu?
If you can get the firmware number you can often google it to find out what exact cam it relates to, otherwise it's more difficult as many companies make mirror cams that literally all look the same but have different sensors/chipsets (internals in general)
If your SD card is a genuine card and a class 10 or above, upgrading to 64gb wont make a difference to how the cam performs. With regards to speed, Some GPS receivers are better than others, and your surroundings may also play a part

What version of firmware is on the Dash Cam?
In order to check what version of firmware you're using;
please stop the camera recording then press menu twice,
scroll down to "system info" or "version" then press OK,
a black screen should pop up with a long text with R.. at the end.
Please tell me what numbers are after the R.
