The 1050 is about 10% faster than the 460, assuming you play at 1920x1080 (https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/GTX_1050_Gaming_X/27.html). Which one you buy depends on the prices you can find.

Be careful about these two issues:

- Your power supply is not very powerful. Of both the 1050 and the 460, there are models which require an extra 6-pin PCIe power connector, and some that don't. Before you buy anything, make sure whether the power supply has at least one 6-pin PCIe power connector if the card requires it. I have been checking the manual, and as far as i can tell, there is NO PCie connector, so i think you would need to find a graphics card that doesn't require it.

- If your PC is a Dell Optiplex 3020, the case is quite slim: you will need a LOW PROFILE (LP) graphics card. There are low profile versions of both the 1050 and 460, just make sure the one you buy is LP.

Hope this helps!

thanks blas to answer me but i know my psu doesnt have 6pin power connecter but you mean that cards still working so first i buy any of them without 6pin thats right but with out 6pin 😀

If your PSU has no 6-pin PCIe connector, then buy a card that doesn't need the connector, and that is low profile. I can't find any low profile 460, so it may have to be a 1050, like this one:
