Maybe or maybe not.

1) what PSU did you have? if the PSU can't handle the gtx1050, then you can't boot the PC up.
2) Do you check your MB has newer version BIOS or not? if no, try update it, get the BIOS from gigabyte site. https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Motherboard/GA-Z77-DS3H-rev-10#ov
3) If you upgrade the gtx1050 from other GPU, you should try to use DDU to uninstall the GPU driver in safe mode, then switch to the gtx1050.

4) the gtx1050 may have problem, test it in other PC.

Does that motherboard have a dual bios? Such as a UEFI mode and a legacy mode? You might be in the wrong mode.
