Yes it is, no offense intended. Anything below 60% gaming benchmark is not going to give the gamer excellent performance and excellent display viewing on their monitors. BUT! If you're happy with your PC then that is all that matters.

However!

Like to see you get a new gaming/workstation rig that would boost you up to Nuclear Submarine. We, who are at UFO level paid a bundle for these machines, either pre-built or custom built.

Ideally, the cost of a super-nice gaming computer will be around: 2,500 USD = 1,845 British Pounds.

There is never a need for two graphics cards. Buy the best video card you can that has two or three cooling fans on it. IF you buy a 3fan video card be sure the length of your case can handle it. Some video cards mount vertically.

This is one of the models of the RTX 3800 Video Cards | Generation 4 PCI-e



2021 parts: Nothing released last year or this year will retro-fit into the z400 series motherboards other than the Video Card* and PSU. So if you go the distance for a new computer that will last 7 to 10 years, salvage all your old parts and get at least 30% of your money back at eBay.

*Older PCI-e Gen3 Video Cards will work on the Z400 series but the Z400 series motherboards are built for the new PCI-e Gen4 Video Cards.

The benchmark categories show that your computer has not been powerful enough for gaming in years. You are right, you need a whole new rig.

Just for grins I ran the benchmark on my other computer, a laptop purchased Nov. 2019. It was never meant to be a gaming rig and I've never installed PG on it though I play other games from Steam on it. The results weren't much better than my main computer.
