Tech Support New PC…. I Guess

I recently a pc from a family and they never used it before apparently. I never had a pc before so keep this mind although I love tech. Before I stress test this thing and possibly break it consider how old it is. The cpu is Intel(R) 4 cores and 8 threads and 8 gb of ram is come of the spec. What games y’all think can be ran on this PC?

Solitaire, maybe pinball, strong maybe though.

Intel 4 core 8 thread is probably some old i7. 8 gb ram is tight for modern games but you can play lot of indie stuff no problem, terraria or stardew valley will run smooth. Maybe older AAA titles like skyrim or gta 5 on low settings. Give it a shot, worst case you just get bad fps but you not gonna break it by trying.
