So my current computer is a Dell Inspiron 3650, Intel Core i3-6100 @3.7 GHz, Intel HD Graphics 530, 8GB RAM, 1 TB HDD, 240 W Power Supply.
I get poor fps when I play games like H1Z1: King of the KIll, Overwatch, ARK: Survival Evolved. And I want to get PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds but my computer can't run it.
So I'm deciding to get an EVGA GeForce GTX 750ti. I have an empty PCI Express x16 slot on my motherboard. My power supply is only 240 W and only powers the motherboard and the cpu. Since 240 W probably isn't enough to power my computer with the graphics card, I'm deciding to get a new PSU maybe at least 400w. I might get an EVGA 400w power supply. The motherboard uses an 8pin connector so I know I might need a 24pin to 8pin connector. And the cpu uses a 4pin connector. Also for some reason the pin on the motherboard currently uses 8pins but i only see 7 wires. I will attach a picture below.
So my questions are:
-What power supply should I use that will fit my case, has at least 400w, and have the cables I will need to power my motherboard and cpu?
-Why is there only 7 wires on the 8pin connector for the motherboard?
-Does the EVGA GeForce GTX 750ti need a power connector or does it get its power from the motherboard?
-If my PSU doesn't fit can I leave it outside the case? Is it safe?
