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?

With Linux you'll run into more of "the drivers for this old hardware are shit" moreso than it won't work. But what you have isn't even remotely old. You'll be fine. CachyOS should work just fine.
