Specifically for ps3 emulation you would benefit from having as good a cpu as possible.
An R5 2600 is listed as D tier on the rpcs3 CPU tier list.
Anecdotally thats the same cpu I use in my windows media computer in my living room. I've tried to do ps3 emulation on it quite a bit. It's a little hit and miss but mostly miss. I can somewhat get away with playing easy to run games but anything even remotely difficult to run is unplayably slow. And I've got an RTX 3060 ti in that. That GTX 1660 is not going to help things.
