well, in this price range you can only go with an RX580, RX590 or the new GTX1660ti. But the GTX1660ti is not out yet (soon). Everything else would not give you real improvement. Even with those cards I would wonder if the improvements would justify the investment. If you can come up with another few more pounds then we would come into territory where you will get real improvement....RTX 2060.

I would go with RTX 2060 and spent the extra. It is probably the best card on the market for 1080p Full HD and can even handle WQHD 1440p pretty good.

The RTX 2060 is faster than the GTX 1070. Would be a bigger improvement compared to what he has now.

True I was just providing another option a bit cheaper but still a significant improvement over the OP's 1050 ti.

Are these two pretty much the same as the gygabyte one I understand that the boost clock on the evga one is a little less would this make much difference?

not a fan of single fan cards, but they are pretty much the same.. i prefer evga because they have a great warranty program
