Is my hardware too old for CatchyOS? (lemmy.world)

I was curious about CatchyOS, but I understand it's really intended for the latest and greatest hardware. One of the few distros that not friendly to older tech. I only have an older machine to test:

B450 Aorus M

Ryzen 7 5700

GTX 1660 Ti

32GB DD4

Would it be worth testing Catchy on this machine, or is my hardware too old to play?

anything core 2 duo/quad or newer will work fine, you only need newer processors if you'd like to make use of the optimized packages..
