The 660 is better of the two. You may get bottlenecking depending on the demands of the game upon your processor. I'd be more concerned about your power supply TBH, as you say it's a low spec system.

GTX 660 requires 24 Amps on the 12v rail & a 450W PSU minimum

AMD 7850 requires 21 Amps on the 12v rail & a 500W PSU minimum

The current lowest power consuming/best performance GPU at the moment is the GTX 750ti, that requires 20 amps & a 400W PSU. The model that doesn't require a supplementary 6 pin has been known to run on 300W PSU's.
