from what i read online zebronics gold 450 watts is from a very low tier and quality manufacture. so if you want to add any decent GPU you may need/want to upgrade you PSU as well

your MB likely has a 2.0 or 2.1 slot. no worries, current 3.0 gpu are backwards compatible. given your psu and generation of tech, a r7 260x or gtx 750ti will be nice upgrades.
