Do I have to buy a new motherboard for it to work or am I okay with the motherboard that I have now?

Hi,

The PSU you're thinking of buying should work fine with your Motherboard.  The only thing I would suggest checking, as with any upgrade, is that the PSU and the new Graphics Card will physically fit ok inside the Tower - always best to check this with a ruler just to make sure

Best wishes,

Thanks David.  I'll be sure to check if it will fit before i go out and buy it
