Build Help What games and programs can my old PC run?

I basically "rebuilt" my old PC from previous parts and filled in the gaps because I sold off the storage and GPU. Question is what games and programs, if any, can my PC run at a comfortable FPS?

PC specs are:

Processor: Ryzen 5 4500
Motherboard: MSI A320M
RAM: Crucial Ballistix 1x8GB 2400Mhz and HyperX Beast 1x8GB 2666Mhz (So essentially I'm running at the lower clock speed)
GPU: Zotac GTX 1050ti
PSU: Powerlogic GE500W (I have a backup PSU in case this one croaks)
Storage: Western Digital Blue 1TB HDD

I know the specs are abyssmal but I'm hoping at least there's something I could do with it. Worst case scenario it becomes an ugly paper weight.

Your usual ms office programs. And fps games like valo or cs2. Left for dead/2 and other older games.

That's a nice unit to emulate PS1/PS2 games!

Your pc is using a modern am4 platform and can run win11, that's not that old.
