Yes, you can run a 7750. The motherboard has a PCI-e 16x port. You should have not problems fitting any graphics card in there.

You won't have any length issues and your case seems large enough to not have width issues. The 7750 doesn't need a PCI-e power connector but the 7770 needs 1 6-pin connector. Its unlikely that your power supply has that.

Also, your PSU is only 250W. A 7770 requires around 270W with your system. A 7750 requires 230W. I suggest buying a new power supply because you will be very close to its limits with the 7750.
