Hey there I currently have a cheap low end gaming pc. Ive got around £350 to spend on upgrading it and i was thinking of replacing the cpu and gpu with a i5 8400 & gtx 1050ti 4gb windforce. Would it make sense and would i see much of an improvement?

Intel G4560 dual core 3.5ghz Kaby Lake Nvidia GT 1030 2gb 8gb (2x 4gb) DDR4 2400 Ram MSI Intel B250M PRO-VDH Motherboard 120ssd 450w Corsair

It is an improvement by far, but I do think you'd need a newer motherboard.

Along the lines of a z370. So that you might have to factor in.

Even with that, you are seeing a good bump as far as power.
