Will my i7 8700k benefit from an OLD 1GB GPU?

Good day all,

My GPU broke, but I have an relatively OLD 1 GB Nividia GPU lying around. Would there be any benefit from using it or am I best of using the CPU Graphics? I am not sure exactly what GPU it is. I think it should be somewhere around the GT series

Use the system for:
- Gaming (Fornite)
- Architectural work (Revit)
- Rendering (Twinmotion)

My current system spec. without GPU:

- Mother Board: Asus ROG Strix Z390 - E
- CPU: Intel core i7 8700k overclocked to 4.7 GHz
- RAM: Corsair Vengeance PRO 2 x 8 GB (Total 16GB) overclocked to 3200 Mhz
- SSD: Nvme M.2 Samsung 950 pro 256GB
- Cooler: Corsair H110 V2 AIO
 
It really depends on exactly what GPU it is - when we know that benchmarks will point in a particular direction.
But you have both, try them.

Thank you decide that I will run it for week with the GPU and then a week without at see if I notice any difference.
 
Not sure about Twinmotion, but Revit can use the CUDA cores on the GPU for acceleration...
