Unfortunately, no. I wish I could've sprung for modular, but I had to draw the line somewhere. Luckily, having a nephew who just got accepted to college for game design means that I always have an excuse to upgrade and give away old parts.

I would, especially if its already 5 years old. Those aren't great units. I'd get at least a Bronze 500-500 watt unit, maybe something like this:

Someone else will have a suggestion with better cost/performance ratio I'm sure, as I'm not the most educated on PSU's, but I do know I would not trust my brand new 1600 and 1060 to a five year old whitebox 450w PSU.
Thanks for your help! Hope this one (CP-9020121-NA) is okay :)
Available on Amazon @ 5300 - 10% on ICICI
I got the CX650M @ 6300 with the discount!
Need a PSU for my ryzen 5 1600 + 1050 TI build, this a reliable PSU?

You can drop the cooler the stock one is fine. You can save some money for a storage drive by doing that and maybe switching to this PSU.

Edit: If you don't want more storage then pick up an extra stick of ram.

Shop around and check /r/buildapcsales frequently. Pcpartpicker also keeps mostly updated with prices. Last place you wanna skimp on is a psu, so avoid the lesser known and lesser reputable manufacturers. Amazon has a Corsair CX550 for $55 but its not modular. That isn't a big deal though, it just means you'll need to hide a few more unsightly cables. The also sell a renewed version but it only has a 90 day warranty through amazon, and I'm not sure if the manufacturer's warranty still applies so probably not worth risking it.

At that price range, I would pick one of these instead.

Very true lol. I’ll probably go with the Corsair CX Series 550 Watt 80 Power Supply https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MRW2K79/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_X8FACbY1A1NZX
Ok If leaving the side of your case off solves your overheating (DUST IT OUT ALSO), here is a bit of a shopping list
2x AF 120 for the fans $34 at frys. 25 on amazon
CX 550 Power Supply(Fry's PSU selection seems to suck) $50
Fan Splitter $5. I think you only have 1 fan power header on your mobo, this allows both to be attached to a single header.
Now all that is useful if you decide to start from scratch in the future, so if you were going for a all new build, you would be buying that anyways.
GPU's all appear to be sold out/super inflated price a FRYs. See how your's does with proper cooling. Or see how a 1050 Ti works for games you want to play (read forums/reddit related to that game)
I actually got some stuff from Amazon that’s supposed to clean it. I also just got a power supply that will be here tomorrow

Cheap-ish but still pretty decent: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01MRW2K79/
Or if you want to get something a little higher end:

So buy Corsair CX550 (https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Bronze-Certified-Non-Modular-CP-9020121-NA/dp/B01MRW2K79/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=corsair+cx550&qid=1563420155&s=electronics&sr=1-1)
It's significantly better.
