trying to update my knowledge, but it has a GTX 660 built in which clearly won’t help. I’m having trouble finding clear details about the board that makes things hard for me (being simple). That’s why I thought you could help—my setup includes a Zotac Mini 1060 with 3GB RAM and an OptiPlex 3010, plus an RX570 with 8GB in my main PC. I’m curious if the RX570 would work here or if I’d run into issues later (once I upgrade to the 3070).

Yes, the prior owner damaged the front USB port.

The QX9650 poses greater issues compared to the GTX 660.

It's a 13-year-old processor that runs much slower than the least powerful dual-core today. It’ll cause major performance issues with the 660 and ignore the 1060 completely.
