You could get away with playing some stuff on a Rift S with your current specs, but I'd recommend trying to find a cheap graphics card upgrade while you wait for them to come back in stock.

I remember posts here a while back about anons having issues using Link with a 1050ti. It's probably not worth buying a cable for Link without a better graphics card, and at that point, he might as well just buy a Rift S unless he really wants to be able to use ALVR/Virtual Desktop wireless or play standalone Quest games too.
