Very close, I have the 380 and my son has the 1050ti.  I would say get the 1050ti simply because it's newer.

It depends on the version.

I do not recommend a 2GB model of the R9 380. 4GB minimum IMO.

My ASUS STRIX R9 380 2GB would choke on games that needed more VRAM, rendering some (like DOOM), almost unplayable.

With that being said, I would say go for the R9 380, though you should be able to get a GTX 1050 ti NEW for a similar price for an R9 380 used. The R9 380 is a 3 year old card at this point, so it may be wise to just get the GTX 1050 ti.
