Will Bazzite Run Well on This PC? (lemmy.ca)

I'm looking to get a gaming pc. I mainly want to use it for emulation of PS3 and Xbox 360 and lower. Would also use for modern gaming some too. I would like to load Bazzite onto it so I can be on Linux and use a steamdeck like interface.

I'm looking at the second hand market and I see one with these specs:

Ryzen 5 2600 Evga GeForce GTX 1660 ADATA XPG 16GB (8x2GB) 3000mhz MSI B450m pro-vdm max 500GB NVME M.2 + 1TB HDD Thermaltake 650w 80+ Bronze Coolermaster q300l v2 mATX Case

Would this PC work well with Bazzite and run PS3 games well?

Bazzite only really does gaming mode on AMD GPUs (RX4xx+). As a general rule of thumb AMD cards are usually better supported under Linux. Bazzite's desktop mode should work fine on a 1660 though.
