Long story short, i was using Sapphire AMD Radeon HD6670 since 2012, and it went sort of dead last week. Am getting artifacts within 5-10 minutes of using the system, and sometimes the display itself going blank - and the only option is to restart the system.

So that leaves me no choice, but to get a new GPU.
Please suggest AMD/nVidia GPU within 7k, based on my below config.

Thanks. I will consider that. But this doesn't have VGA port.
Can I use this GPU via DVI-D to VGA converter with my monitor?

These days graphic cards don't have the the DVI-I port i.e. no analog pins.

So basically you'll have to buy an active converter. Since DisplayPort is getting popular these days, you can buy a DP to VGA converter. HDMI/DP/DVI-D to VGA converters are going to be a bit expensive as they do a digital to analog conversion.

There are no passive "HDMI to VGA" converters, its never a direct conversion, using active conversion has a risk of reducing quality or refresh rate.
DVI-D can be converted because the connector comes with both digital and analog signals.

This post says, 550 performs lower than 1050.

A proper ranking involving recent performance analyses would show:

RX 550 - Baseline

RX 460 ~ 75-85% faster than RX 550

GTX 1050 ~ 80% faster than RX 550

RX 560 ~ 15-25% faster than RX 460

GTX 1050Ti ~ 25% faster than GTX 1050
