If you wanted to use yuzu or dolphin emulator, you would need as recent as possible processor like intel 10th or 11th gen and OC the highest as you can.
Wifi adapter I would assume they just give you some cheap USB2 or USB3 2.4/5ghz. suggest just use LAN if you can or buy PCIE wifi 6/6e (depending  on your router).
AMD Rx580 doesnt have game support anymore, currently they only give you “critical” security and bug fix updates. Get RX6000 or RX7000. If Nvidia RTX2000 series, don't buy GTX from RTX2000.
Intel HD Graphics 530(New) is BS. Its just your intel processor intergrated graphic, its just old.
Get M2 NVME drive. Dram or not doesnt matter because they just a whole lot faster than Sata.

GTX1660 Ti ok?
