Hello Chriss30,

The GPU and MB are fine together but you will need a new PSU as the present one putting it politely is complete junk, labelled as 450W but the information label tells a different story, +12V Xs 19A = 228W and being honest the PSU may not even be able to produce that.

Before purchasing a new PSU it is advisable that you measure the dimensions of the present PSU and ensure that the new PSU has the correct power connections for the MB, HDDs, optical drives, FDDs or add on cards such as a video card etc.

Sorry but not possible as even the most basic of add on GPU require a minimum of a good quality brand 300W or above PSU, a GTX 750Ti being one such example, see specs here

Quality brands to trust include Corsair, EVGA and Seasonic and you can trust these brands as not only are they reliable but also because they don`t put such false labels on them like on the DELUX PSU in your picture.
