You can use this to calculate if your powersupply will be enough http://www.coolermaster.com/power-supply-calculator/

If you're going to get a ryzen for the APU and use a graphics card with it, it will disable the APU. I think you're better off getting a Ryzen 1600x and the 1050 now for the long run. But you might wana recommend upgrading that powersupply to at least a 500w.

1050's I believe come with an adapter from DVI to VGA aswell. If not, they're a couple bucks.
Please do as i said, Don't use 1030 Please. you are gonna regret it soon, better for you to buy cheap rx 560 or cheap 1050 than 1030.
Fyi, no need bios update for add a new Gpu. or you just can upgrade using Ryzen 3 2200g.
 


Ok,Thanks I want to upgrade to a ryzen APU but my mobo has socket:1155
Also i think this gpu is good but as you said is not.Ok i agree because is an 1030 but i if i want to buy an cheap and good gpu now what can i buy?1050?rx 560?Or something else [But my psu is 300w so the gpu no need so much power].I want to get this 1030 because I want it for now, so in the future I will make a better gaming pc
