I was just about to buy the new gpu (gtx 1050 ti 4gb) but then i thought twice because my psu is low end. it's advertised as 500w but you can't really know what its capable of here it is:

my previous gpu is integrated here are my specs:
processor:
Name: AMD A8-7650K Radeon R7, 10 Compute Cores 4C+6G
Speed: 3.3 GHz

Video Card: AMD Radeon(TM) R7 Graphics

RAM: 14 GB (was 16 but it got deducted throughout the years not sure why)

I did a pc part picker build and it said the watts will be 283
How big of a risk am i taking by just buying the new gpu without a new psu because i don't really have enough money to buy both right now.
 
Solution
Id replace it... very low quality. No surge protection so if it spiked internally it would take out half your computer with it.
