What are CPU or GPU Bottlenecks?
Are you getting sudden frame drops? you might have a bottleneck.

And, some lower budget than RX 550.
If the RX 550 is better, are there any low profile single slot cards out there?
The problem here is that the RX 550 is currently more expensive than it is really worth. It is only 14% faster but is - more expensive.
The real question here is even if they are slower, does it matter? Maybe they are still fast enough to suit your purposes. For instance, maybe for you 50fps silent is better than 60fps with fan noise. On the other hand, if these low budget cards barely manage 35fps in the games you want to play, giving up even a small amount of performance is out of the question.
A friend of mine uses Photoshop , illustrator etc for work
I want to give him a gift and I can't decide between
Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 2GB (80 EUR)
and
Gigabyte Radeon RX 550 2GB Gaming OC(100 EUR)
He doesn't know how to overclock and he wants a GPU basically for work not so much for games
(The GPU that he uses now is GeForce 9600 GT Asus Magic HDMI 512MB Edition
and he uses a CORE 2 QUAD Q6600 not overclocked CPU)
Basically I want to give him as a gift a better GPU than the 9600 GT but for Photoshop and editing not so much for games
He is a professional photographer
