I think a GTX 1050 will work OK and much faster than the 730.

Honestly not worth the investment. Better off spending your money on an up to date platform.

Ryzen 2200G, B450 motherboard, and some DDR4 3000 or higher. Keep everything else and you'll have a faster GPU than you have now and a platform you can upgrade up to an 8 or 12 core CPU, and any GPU you could want for the next several years.

If you wanted only a GPU, I would recommend an RX560 or even RX570.

This is the way to go, pairing any new GPU with that CPU is a waste of money. You'll probably see similar frame rates with a new APU to what you'll see with that old CPU and a new GPU.

Sure.....it's just slightly slower than a 1050 but much faster than what you are running.
