modules activated (the heavier I use normally is denoising twice) zooming
in and out and panning is fluid with the GPU. Under the same circumstances
there is a clear slowdown when using the CPU, specially on big zoom
changes. I'm assuming the 1050Ti will be better, so the difference with the
1060 should be imperceptible most of the time. The i5-3450 you have seems
to be much slower than my CPU, so you should see a huge improvement with
any card.

The biggest difference will be on export, both between the cards and the
CPU. How important it is will depend on the amount of exporting you do. I
typically export only some dozens of pictures per week, if the total time
is 5 or 15 minutes it doesn't make any difference for me. It is probably
much more important for somebody exporting hundreds of pictures per day on
a deadline.
