Hello friends and familiy. Sorry for my English it's not my main language.
So I planed to pair GTX 1050 ti with my i3 4130, that card would cost me around 145€ , is that a good combination with my processor ?
Is it even worth to upgrade my CPU to i5 4690K for 5-10 extra fps on some games ?
I dont plan to upgrade my GPU for at least 3-4 years after this..
Thanks in advance

I will be ohnest. If you want to go low on budget it's way better to go with the new pentium g4560 or i5 4690k. New pentium is better than i3 4130. It also has 2 cores and 4 threads. I have it paired with gtx 1070. It does the job. It's not stuttering and it's doing really well. Buy the cheapest b250 motherboard that you can find for it. It will cost 100 euro's with the motherboard overall. If you want to buy a gpu for the future you need to buy at least gtx 1060 6gb. Here is the build.: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/GRBw4C It's with the psu as I don't know your current one. :)

If you mean to ask if you should get the GTX 1050 ti, or instead upgrade your CPU to an i5-4690k, then I would suggest the 1050 ti.

1050ti won't be bottlenecked by i3 4130 given you are running dual channel memory.

4690k is a waste of upgrade. Since as a cpu it's starting to age and once 6 core i5 come it will look pale in comparison. you won't get any benefit in gaming performance from it. Resell will not be great for it.

If it's for gaming best get a 1050ti and later on upgrade to a new coffee lake system in a year or two.
