If you can find this card for the $165 or less where you live it would be a definite upgrade to what you currently have.

Yup. Assuming it fits in that tiny tower

When looking at the upgrade options it shows full sized video cards. (GTX 760 and HD 270X)

The GTX 645 that you have is a full size card.

Spending money to go from a 645 to a 650 seems a waste.

650Ti.

Save the $165 for another few months and pick something in the 7xx Nvidia or R9 series for a decent price. $165 isn't enough for a reasonable upgrade, and the 650 ti will still be the bottleneck in your system.
