I'm curious if my setup with an Intel i5-9400F and 16GB of RAM will perform well with an RTX 5050 graphics card. Specifically, can I expect decent gaming at 1080p or perhaps even 1440p?

This setup is really on the low end, especially the CPU, which might struggle with FPS on newer AAA titles. I'd be surprised if you hit over 60fps at any resolution. Honestly, you might want to look into better options or upgrades for a smoother gaming experience.
Technically, it can handle 1080p, but don’t expect great performance. I've used higher setups at lower resolutions, and while the games did run, the performance wasn't as smooth as I'd like.
1080p should work perfectly fine for your setup, but pushing it to 1440p might be a bit ambitious.
The i5-9400F and RTX 5050 combo won't really shine at 1440p. You can handle esports games at 1080p, but for AAA titles, expect to lower the settings and aim for around 60fps at best.
You'll be fine playing older or lightweight titles at 1080p, but 1440p might be a stretch unless you're playing very light games.
