i'm want to upgrade my GPU to gtx 750 ti but i don't know if it will work and i think my motherboard is to old...
Here's my PC specs:
Intel Core i5 750 2.67GHz
‏‏‎4.00GB Single-Channel DDR3
Intel Corporation DP55WB (LGA 1156)
400W Power Supply
 
You should be fine, provided your PSU can handle it, but I'd stay away from that 750TI specifically.

That *looks* to be one of the fake 750TI that's were going around. Reflashed BIOS's of 640's or something.
It's totally unbranded, and requires a 6pin connector...... I think there were only one or two 750TI's that needed Aux power..... and those didn't look "generic" like those do.

Even on a 1GB 750TI.... I think Zotac were the only brand, outside of OEMs to produce them (could be wrong).
For very (very!) similar money, a legit, 2GB 750TI is available:
