I don't know what's that, what CPU?
Either way, the bottleneck is the CPU, what you want is a GPU that is decent enough to support Vulkan with active drivers not bottleneck the CPU, if you want high performance in PS3 games you'll need a CPU upgrade.

For GPU, find anything that falls under the recommended requirements, I would say at least around GTX 1060 / RX 480 performance.

Based on what i foun here > https://www.dell.com/learn/sg/en/sghea1/...csheet.pdf , your computer is built more for professional workstation rather than gaming. Don't bother
with replacing gpu. Get a new computer that is built for games.

Not sure if you're still looking, but I definitely second what Ani and Sportster are saying here: The main priority for getting the best possible performance is through having some relevant Modern Era Intel CPU, and a GPU upgrade would mostly only be necessary for playing in higher resolutions and for added compatibility (Driver Longevity and API Support): Based on my experiences with using a current All AMD setup (Ryzen 5950X and Radeon VII), your best bets will be to opt for an Intel CPU/Nvidia GPU combo, as many games minor and major that I have tested locally seem to either break in some form or be stuck in Intro status due to specific issues that are present with Zen III and Vega II.
Since you would be upgrading from a CPU of the Westmere Era, literally any Multithreaded CPU from Coffee Lake (Generation VIII; the 8700, 9900, or their K Variants are Preferred) to Alder Lake (Generation XII; Units with AVX512 are Preferred) would deliver a substantial uplift (during the Scalping craze over the past two years, as a Stopgap Solution, I would've said that getting a 5960X, 6900K, or 6950X from the X99 Era would've made some relevant difference for those upgrading from Westmere or Gulftown if a 9900, 11700, 12600K, or 12700 were not affordable, especially if one could use Intel's TSX Instruction found in Haswell E and Broadwell E for any workloads); as for the GPU, best bets is to opt for anything from Nvidia with Upper Midrange Pascal performance or better (especially if you also intend to use your system for anything else), I often recommend anything in the 1070 Ti/2060 Super/RTX 3050 range at minimum as it is a respectable level of performance for a true All Around experience (it's essentially the new Entry Level of this generation) and they're all in a price range that is viable for the current market.
