The 3GB is just too little and it also has less clocks than the 6GB, I'd recommend either the RX 470 4GB (https://www.amazon.co.uk/XFX-RX-470P4LDB6-Radeon-Graphics-Card/dp/B01JM2DFLC/ref=sr_1_4?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1482694812&sr=1-4&keywords=rx470) or the RX 480 4GB (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sapphire-Polaris-FreeSync-PCI-Express-Graphics/dp/B01IQS6QE6/ref=sr_1_20?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1482694827&sr=1-20&keywords=rx480) whichever fits in your budget.
Asus, XFX o MSI?
It's an extra $20 for the RX470 which is an average of 25 fps ahead of the 1050ti, plus better DX12 support. And then an extra $20 for the RX480 which is an even bigger beast.
Cards I recommend for your price range:

RX480: http://pcpartpicker.com/product/84M323/msi-radeon-rx-480-4gb-gaming-x-video-card-radeon-rx-480-gaming-x-4g (4gb model)
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KCWZ0DM/ref=psdc_284822_t2_B01MU0OIN5 (8gb @239.99)
GTX 1060: Same manufacturers, same price as the 8gb model above
So the choices are RX470 at around $170-180 or save up a little bit for the RX480 or 1060 @$230. If you do not choose to save for the 480/1060, go for the 470 as it's soo much better than the 1050ti
Between those two, I'd actually stick with an RX 470 unless the 3 RB GTX 1060 cost literally the exact same. If anything, I would go all the way up to the 6 GB GTX 1060 - that seems to be a different pricing tier, though. (There's an EVGA one at mindfactory for €267.)
I'd also avoid the RX 470 reference design (I believe the Sapphire RADEON RX 470 is one; the custom-cooled Sapphire card is called "Nitro") and go for an aftermarket-cooled version like this one.
Put a rx 470 in there and call it a day

Will it be as simple as plug and play?

That's on my amazon wishlist. What's the advantage/disadvantage between the two?

but I'm not sure how long it will take for stock to return.
Would that be something like this? These are comparable to 1060s, right?
