Budget (including currency): 150 eur

Country: Latvia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: At this moment my biggest issue is I can't run Pubg,  7daystoday smoothly, which kills a lot of joy to play these games.  Also looking at warzone 2 potentially to play, and many other titles that I have simply skipped over, because I knew my pc wouldn't run them.

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

 

The goal of the upgrade is a quality of life upgrade, it runs other games that I play and I will save up something like 1,5k EUR to buy a new computer in a few years, I have some travel plans ahead so this wont be my top priority immediately

I also ordered a new samsung 870 evo 500gb ssd, to replace the current hdd

I am looking to buy a newer used graphics card, the site I am using is basically the Latvian version of craigslist

I found a MSI Gtx 1060 X 6G for a 100 euros, which seems like a good deal

Would this be a good upgrade, or would you choose something else?

Or is it even worth upgrading this system?

For 150€ i'd recommend you an gtx 1650 super, fits right in the budget (at least over here in germany you can find them at that price sometimes).
