I have a GTX 1050 that I want to replace, what is the best replacement ? 

Whatever the best card you can afford is.

What games are you playing? What resolution/refresh rate? What are you looking to spend?

Well, you need to start with the power supply. That one is junk and not something that should be trusted with a proper GPU.

After that - the card. Aim for a 5500 XT or 1660

1920X1080 60Hz Bo4 and similar games I'm looking to spend around 112 $ or more

112 USD or more? Or do you mean less? 

Because or more implies an unlimited budget.

 

112 USD or less:

If you're buying new, you won't find anything much better than what you already have.

If you're comfortable with buying second hand, you can try to get an RX 580 8GB, which should be around that price range and about 30% better.

 

112 USD or more:

I would get something like an RX 5700(XT) or 2060 (Super). Those are about the best you should get for 1080p and even then a bit overkill.

 

EDIT: oh, but don't go for any of these on that PSU.

And get an SSD

share your parts as a pcpartpicker list so that we know what memory config you have. do you have a single 8GB dimm? This affects performance a lot.

 

here's a start:

  Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts  
  Total $0.00

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

I can afford a RTX 2060 Super but I should I keep my current CPU ?
