I really want to know if the motherboard wont be a problem (looks ok)
Connections are ok.
Appreciate the help.

You will not be able to install the graphics card onto your PC, it only has PCI-E 2.0 slots, and the card needs PCI-E 3.0 slots to work, and the power supply could be a bit better.

I realize you mentioned that before but everything that I have watched and read including the MSI video on that card says that it is backward compatible even to PCIe1.0. This would also mean that an aweful lot of people with even relatively new PCs would have to upgrade their motherboards to run a GPU. I wouldnt think that Nvidia or ATI would want that.

The power supply is made by SeaSonic (a very reputable company) and should be plenty to power a 270x along with the rest of that system.

What is it about the power source that is not sufficient? is it the Wattage? I dont plan to crossfire. I did not mention that in the original post. I just want an upgrade that will last for a bit

The power supply is good, but if your getting into heavy duty gaming i would go for something a tad bit higher end. (just my personnel preference)
