Now on the Modern games, there is basically a thing where most Modern games are not coded correctly, therefor they dont perform as well as they should, this is countered by having a decent enough PC, if you get my point.
1660 Super is a good card, for 1080p, but its still on the weaker side of things its good for people that want to play last gen games or long term games at a high level, like WoW, hence why i am suggesting if you are gonna throw money, throw them properly.
As example for Cyberpunk, a 1660 Super scales around 40-60 FPS barely, on Medium-High settings, and around 60-80 with a 8core apparently, decent enough but you get my point how the card is on the weaker side. (I think this is with DLSS, so its actual performance is much lower).
If your gaming is gonna be 90% WoW and 10% something else, 1660 Super is a great choice yes, if its gonna be any other percentage, i would suggest forking out the cash and getting at least minimum a 8core/3060 to last you a good 3 years of High-Ultra assuming you stay on 1080p.
