Solution
The wattage doesn't matter, quality does. That PSU is junk quality. It can easily die, and take your system with it. It simply is not worth the risk.

Newer graphics cards typically require a UEFI bios, which your old system will not have. The B450m will, though. Also, your PSU is very low quality, and should be replaced.
ok so the motherboard doesent work then,oh well i gues i have to wait couple more days to order my last pice for mynew rig,damn i was hoping i can test my old pc with new grapics card just to see how much better score i get on 3d mark and so on lol
