I'm assisting a friend with upgrading their PC, and they currently have an old Nvidia 1050 Ti. They want to know what graphics card they should upgrade to in order to play modern games like Tekken 8 and other current FPS titles. We're looking for budget-friendly options—specifically around the $350 to $450 range.

Don’t forget to consider your monitor! A 165Hz screen demands good performance, so it’s crucial to pair that with the right card. Also, where you're located can impact prices. If you're in the UK, check out local deals for the best options.
If you're looking for more options, something like the 5700XT or the 3060 Ti could work. You might find good deals on used cards for those models. For new ones, the RTX 3050 and RX 6600 are decent choices but could stretch your budget a bit depending on prices.
Thanks for the suggestions!
For a budget-friendly option, I'd suggest checking out the RTX 3050 with 6GB. The price can vary, but it's generally a good balance between performance and cost. Just make sure to confirm how much you define as 'budget' for a more tailored suggestion!
I’m considering between $350 and $450 for the upgrade.
Yeah, I plan to use it on a UK-based setup.
