The 550 ti is much better then the iGPU on the 3770K and will play Fortnite around 60 FPS on 1080P mix of Low to Medium settings. With your budget I would just use the single 550 ti and then continue saving for something better. If you don't have much disposable income then consider a used GPU, just try to make sure it hasn't been mined with and if possible still retains some sort of warranty. While the 550 ti is an older GPU it should allow you to play Minecraft/Fortnite with reasonable settings at 60 FPS.

Fortnite doesn't support SLI, at least not on older GPU's. Made a build for my friends kit that has two EVGA GTX 550 ti 2gb's and one of the games they play is Fortnite so I tested out if SLI works and only one of the GPU's was utilized. This was with the newest drivers and SLI enabled.

Even a low end card like the GTX 1650 Super will blow a 550ti SLI out of the water in performance.
i know it was beacuse i colud get a 550 ti fo around 25 kr and a new 1650 super costs about 1699 kr so there is a big diffrence
and i only play fortnite and minecraft so i dont need super great gpu´s 1$=6,78 kr and i am pretty poor with about 200 kr
but i thought about saving for a 1660 super thanks for the help
but will it run minecraft in sli

Minecraft has the same problem running with SLI/Crossfire.

Better to save up. You may, in fact, be able to find a 550 Ti for 25 kroner, but realistically, it's worth 0 kroner to you.
