Is that your current rig, or your idea for the new one? Also, you missed few parts, such as PSU, motherboard, case, HDD... or is it because you already have those?

 

Give us more detail.

I recommend you stay away from old hardware like this. Plus you'd be stuck in DDR3 land with no options to upgrade to DDR4 or a better processor.

The 2400g will do just fine for the games I assume you'd expect to be playing on a 1050. You also have fast DDR4 and the AM4 socket which allow upgrade-ability in the future without also upgrading your motherboard and RAM.
