My pc specs are as follows:

i5 3470
8GB RAM 1600Mhz
GTX 1050 2GB
Crucial MX500 500gb

Is it worth it to upgrade to a 1050 ti for 130$ ?
 
It's basically never worth it to upgrade just one GPU notch. The difference in performance would never justify the cost. If you're going to upgrade, look to go several levels up. But it really depends on your resolution and what you do with your GPU.
 
My pc has a 280w PSU so i can only put a card that is pci powered so i cannot get a 1060. Resolution is 1680x1050. Looks like i will wait to see if the 2050/Ti are cheap enough for me.
