Solution
The I5-2400 will work on your system. From the Optiplex 390 tech guide, they shipped models with the I5-2400:

Just make sure to upgrade to the latest BIOS before upgrading your CPU.

For the GPU, on the SFF model the PCIe x16 slot only provides 25W MAX, so the 30W TDP GT 1030 is the best you can upgrade to:

You need to make sure that the GT 1030 variant you're buying is Low profile + single slot. These models will work:

EVGA GT 1030 2GB SC LP

GIGABYTE GT 1030 2GB LP

ASUS GT 1030 2GB LP

MSI GT 1030 2G LP OC
