I'm almost positive that's not a GTX 1050.  Unless it's like an OEM design.

Edit: Tis an OEM 1050

Nice build, I enjoy seeing builds from older and budget components, I may build something like this in the near future, could you run a benchmark on the system and attach a screen capture of the performance results?

No worries, just quote or tag me when you are able to run the benchmark and get the results.

Thats a steal of a deal! where did you get the 1050?

This is great! I was just thinking today on keeping my case and PSU, and upgrade the interiors. My combo is almost the same of yours! I will take some pictures tomorrow to show it to you. I even have the case dented a little bit at the top panel ! Amazing!

 

I was even thinking of adding a couple extra fans. but the space is limited and the case does not help with cable management at all!

From a performance aspect, should have bought a used Xbox One

But builds like this can be entertaining.

I got it from a friend who upgraded to a 2060.

My original system was bought in august 2013. I currently have:
FX-8350 with a coolermaster 212 evo (since day one)
ASUS M5a78L-M/USB3 (I originially had a Gigabyte 970A UD3P that died in February 2018. I decided it was cheaper for my doings just to get another AM3+ board for a while, and this was the only one I could find new)
MSI GTX 1050 over clock (2GB only, I bought it in 2016 to replace the original MSI AMD HD7870 I used which died suddenly)
1TB seagate barracuda (since day one); 500GB toshiba and 960GB Crucial (both added later)

8GB of crucial DDR3 RAM at 1600 CL9

The case came originally with a crappy thermaltake PSU which died in 2015. I thing that PSU made the other components die later, but who knows. Currently running on a EVGA 600B bronze.

 

I may be selling it all complete (without the cooler and SSD) and get a new ryzen, o maybe only selling the CPU-RAM-MB-GPU and keep the case, mod it (the acrylic is scratched because I keep it under the desk and there is a small screw that touches i whenever I take it out to clean it or adding something), paint it, get some fans, etc etc, which could save a few bucks, but the case has not a good space for cable management, and well, it is not of the greatest quality (even a plastic piece just broke when barely touched for the removal of the front panel for the pictures)
