This PC supports various applications and tasks.
Your system has a GTX660 graphics card, a PCIe 2.0 X16 connection, and 8 GB of RAM. Since you don’t know the CPU model, you might want to identify it by checking the system information or running a benchmark. This setup should support most modern applications, but performance will depend on the CPU speed and stability.
You can generally play most titles smoothly at around 720p with standard settings. Some games and older ones may handle higher resolutions or better quality. The main constraints come from very small VRAM amounts and the absence of real dx12 support. Titles that rely on dx12 features often won’t work, while a few might run poorly if memory isn’t sufficient.
GTX 660 runs about 15% slower than GTX 1050, making it feasible to play certain games. A powerful CPU mainly improves smoothness during gameplay. To verify the CPU performance, open Task Manager or System Info on Windows. For specific titles, you can find benchmarks on YouTube for GTX 660, which show both compatibility and performance levels.
I owned a GTX 660 as my primary graphics card from 2014 to 2016, paired with an i7-920 and later i7-950. Games from 2010 to 2015 should work smoothly at 1080p above 30fps. The Kepler architecture didn’t hold up well over time, so newer titles don’t perform as consistently as on more recent cards that match the GTX 660’s capabilities in older games. Some titles, like a GTX 960, can run comparably to a GTX 780 (Ti) or even surpass it, while others won’t boot at all on Kepler 600/700 series cards because they lack proper DX12 support. Recently I tested Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail on the GTX 660. Both ran well at 1080p around 60fps with low to mid settings. Genshin was somewhat demanding on the CPU, even with an i7-3770 @ 4.22–4.43GHz, often exceeding 50% usage. What you can enjoy also depends heavily on your CPU setup.
