I've never used this forum before, but i saw some nice answers to another, similar post like this! Thats why I'm asking here. Btw I'm a complete PC-Setup-Noob.

I've been considering making some slow upgrades on my PC. Im a graphic designer and video editor (littlebit 3D too) but I need the upgrade for Gaming too. And I have 3 FHD Screens atm.

My Setup right now is displayed in these Screenshots:

(EDIT so you dont need to read all the posts below to get the information)
I have the Crosshair VS450 (Has 450W i think) and the space from the back (where the graphicscardcard has it outputs) to the first thing in the case is about 29 or 30 cm


The Card i want to go with is the GTX 1070.. Will it work just buying the new graphics card and putting it in or do i need a new motherboard? If yes are there any options that i dont need a new motherboard? (alternate graphics card? I dont want to get a neww processor+RAM etc...)
Maybe this one: https://www.notebooksbilliger.de/gainward+geforce+gtx+1070+8gb+gddr5+grafikkarte/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI57HliPjn3wIVEpSyCh23jgOdEAQYBCABEgKMpfD_BwE&nbb=pla.google_css_adagents&wt_cc2=912-0001_Hardware_268674&ef_id=EAIaIQobChMI57HliPjn3wIVEpSyCh23jgOdEAQYBCABEgKMpfD_BwE:G:s

Ok you have room in the case.

Your psu is lower quality and wattage than I would recommend. I’d recommend upgrading the psu yo a good quality 550w.
