This is my first time replacing a graphics card. Since my PSU is modular does that need i need to buy additional cables?

your psu has 4 pci-e connectors they have 6 pins and look like this:

ignore the 2 extra pins
you simply connect themto the top of the gpu, and you are golden

update: i was looking your psu and it only delivers 650w, and your gpu consumes 500w on maximun load so i'll recoment upgrading it, like now
