As long as your PSU is good enough I'd save up a little bit more and get the RX 570 or find a RX 570/580 used.

When gaming if you lower the settings does the FPS increase?

(Trying to figure out if you'd benefit more from a CPU or GPU upgrade).

Yeah im pretty sure FPS increases, i think my GPU is too weak for processor.

It could be and the RX 570 would be a good upgrade although your going to want to probably get a new CPU/MB/RAM for the next upgrade.

Is rx 570 better than 1050ti?

Is rx 570 better than 1050ti?

Yes but if your using some no name or poor quality PSU, which realistically should be replaced, then you may want to look at the 1050 ti/1650 for the lower power consumption and less risk of damaging the new GPU or your other parts.

hmm, yeah my psu is trash( i was on a budget) i will get 1050ti and upgrade psu afterwards.

The 1650 is a little bit better then the 1050 ti so if you can find it for cheaper then that's what I'd get. Also I think in like a week or so Nvidia is releasing the 1650 Super which should perform even better for around the same price so it may be worth waiting a little bit longer before replacing that 1030 (use the profits from the 1030 to get a better PSU).

Any good cheap PSU you could recommend?

"Cheapest" I'd recommend.
