thank you in advance
i have fsp 500w psu
and my cpu is i7 4770 if it helps
 


the answer is yes to both questions



with your specs a gtx 1060 would be a lot better
 
That 1050 Ti will draw 75W from your motherboard. Your motherboard can supply that, since it's a standard amount from the pci-ex slot of motherboards. The times you might have problems would be if you had a pre-built computer like a Dell or HP. Sometimes those companies use non standard components, and if they use a non standard motherboard it might not put out a full 75W.

That's a pretty good CPU you have, and your 500W power supply should be able to handle a more powerful videocard if you chose to get one.
