    All depends on what you are comparing it to. Plus a whole bunch of other factors need to be considered.... what is the bus speed? What chipset is on the motherboard? Is there any overclocking? What are the settings in bios/UEFI that affect speed such as RAM scrambling decrease noise emitions.

    With that old Nvidia chipset you may expect some problems with sound drivers (Via Codec) and possibly with network adapter.

    I did have audio problems, but that's about it. I got them fixed by installing the Realtek audio driver.

    You can use a benchmark to compare, how your PC is performing compared to other PCs within the same class.
