It seems a bit weird choice of components. You have a very powerful CPU and a very weak GPU. If the GPU is only there to do some light gaming it would be good, but the 1050Ti is at best an entry level GPU enabling playing only at low to medium settings, depending on used resolution.
I don't know Xidax memory, PSU or SSD brand, and this usually means cheap and unreliable components are being used.
If you have a set budget and the purpose of the computer we could give better advice as to what would be a better build.
