First of all I'm aware that there's a similar question already solved, but I want to make sure.
So I have a 4 year old i3+750Ti build witch I want to update. So i would get a high end 4th. Gen i7, like an 4770 or an 4790 (both can k or non-k) and I want to get a 1050ti.
I want to make sure if it would be a good pairing and not a bottleneck. I want to play on 1080p Medium/high, would it be able to do so? Another thing I use two monitors, would it make the performance so muck worse? Thank you all for helping.
 
Solution
No, you would not see a bottleneck. The 1050ti is meant for 1080p gaming at high settings on a budget and you wouldn’t see any issues. Push things up to 1440p then yes.

As for the two monitors you wouldn’t notice anything there, either. The 4th gen Core processors are still solid gaming chips especially at 1080p.
