    That PC is pretty weak overall. It might be best to mention what games you're targeting with it.

    Those games are all older, and not that demanding. You should be okay with those.

    Those games would be OK but at this stage shouldn't be buying a PC with a GTX1050Ti. It's since been replaced by GTX1650 which is much faster and is the new "budget" model for lower end machines.

    While the 1050Ti would run the games you mentioned fine, a lot of newer games would barely run on it if at all. Games like Apex Legends or Call of Duty just about run at low settings, some other games run poorly even at low.
