Based on typical performance, you'd likely achieve around 1,500 to 2,000 FPS with those components.

I’ll simply decline so you avoid getting a cheaper GPU for a 11-year-old CPU and hope it still works well
GTX 1650 performs roughly 20% less efficiently compared to RX 480.
I've got PCIe 2.0 and 3.0 slots, but my AMD GPUs aren't compatible.
The person who mentioned that the bus interface has nothing to do with brand preference was likely a representative or expert in the field.
PCIe supports backward compatibility. Inserting a PCIe 4.0 device into a PCIe 3.0 port will operate at the slower 3.0 speed. For x16 slots, the difference is minimal since most GPUs can't fully utilize the 3.0 bandwidth even with x16 lanes. High-end cards such as the RTX 4090 may handle it, but it's beyond typical budgets. The issue also affects lower-end chips with limited lanes—like the RX 6500 XT—which would perform much worse when connected to a PCIe 3.0 interface because they depend on the 4.0 bandwidth from four lanes instead.
