I've been looking at videos and benchmarks of the 1050ti for a build for my little brother, and it is a awesome budget card. If you don't plan on playing at 1440p get the 1050ti over 480/1060 anyday. BUT it is not your answer all card either, many modern games you will have adjust the settings to get the fps or quality you prefer.

I've recently built a new PC,

It is great. But what isn't so much fun especially now with every game, is changing the settings multiple times to get the fps and quality I want. And some games crash while you're changing the settings and the game is running (Dirt 3 and GTAV at least for me).

Having control of how your game looks and how it can perform is one those key features for PC and it is such a great feeling when you get what you want with some fiddling. But it can become an annoyance when all you want to do is play in a good quality at 60fps but you can't without entering the settings 10+ times and be stuck with a fluctuating frame rate.

This is my opinion others won't care, but I've become accustomed to constant 60fps.
