Which component is "limited" to 15W?

Mineral oil and 40 kg aluminium heat sinks are a perfect combination: 73 cores and a Titan X, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Oil

15watt DTP is on the cpu

The PSU have enough power for the GPU. But will be a heavy unbalanced system and you can't realy benefit from the GPU....

Wait wait wait... that is a mobile processor... this ain't making sense. 

Yeah just caught that too... I'm confused now.

Just a normal guy with a constant desire to modify everything he owns.

Mainly game

The system is not made for gaming (new) games at all....

You can't update it. When you have the budget, make a new build.

The GPU has got no connectors the one i am buying is a 

EVGA NVIDIA GTX 750Ti SC 1176MHz (Boost 1255MHz) 5400MHz 2GB 128-bit GDDR5 HDMI DVI-I DP PCI-E Graphics Card

the watt of the PSU is 230v

Voltage is Not Amperage. This is a Very simplified way of seeing it

Voltage = Speed

Amperage = Weight

The wattage should look like "[Number]w"

What wattage is the top for the PSU?

A system that only has a tiny little 15 watts CPU would most likely not be able to handle much more than 75 watts or so.

The Motherboard, storage and Fans also require wattage.

My Gaming PC

|| CPU: Intel i5 4690@4.3Ghz || GPU: Dual ASUS gtx 1080 Strix. || RAM: 16gb (4x4gb) Kingston HyperX Genesis 1600Mhz. || Motherboard: MSI Z97S Krait edition. || OS: Win10 Pro
