I7's are on many platforms. 1150 is just one of them.

OP: Whats your budget & currency?

That board's IGP may actually be faster or as fast as the GT 610. The FX 4300 is a good CPU and if you want better performance in games, upgrade your graphics card. What power supply do you have?

The GPU & PSU need to be brought in a pair as your current PSU wont be able to cope with it and the GPU is the worst item in that PC.

The CPU & Motherboard need to be brought after also as a pair since if you get one and not the other, it wont fit correctly.

If you post the model number, we can tell you if you need to change it. It may be fine.
