Solution
Not horrible but certainly not good.

No 80+ rating but it does at least have Over Voltage/Over Current/Short Circuit protection.

Me personally, I would not risk a $200 GPU with it when better PSUs can be had for $50-55
Yes, your board has pci-e 2.0 slot on it so it will work. It wont be able to go at 3.0 bandwidth but I doubt that will be an issue for your build.

Make sure you have a decent power supply. Many power supplies just slap a sticker with a high number on it but in reality they cant handle half that load. A good power supply will last through many upgrades. A cheap power supply will fry all the parts in your PC when you put it under high load (like gaming GPUs).
