I'm am going to buy the GTX 650 low profile graphics card and the answers vary whether it would work with my 300w psu and some have said to go for a 500w power supply and i can't find any. The only problem is i have have a small case and so the power supply should probably be a similar size to this:

Which was recommened to me on here.
I have the Lenovo H520s.

For a system using a single GeForce GTX 650 graphics card NVIDIA specifies a minimum of a 400 Watt or greater system power supply that has a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 20 Amps or greater and that has at least one 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connector.

Total Power Supply Wattage is NOT the crucial factor in power supply selection!!! Sufficient Total Combined Continuous Power/Current Available on the +12V Rail(s) rated at 45°C - 50°C ambient temperature, is the most critical factor.

The Seasonic 300W TFX (SS-300TFX) power supply unit, with its maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 21 Amps is sufficient to power your system configuration with a single GeForce GTX 650 graphics card.

If you want a little more headroom you can get the Seasonic SS-350TGM that has a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 29 Amps.

The low profile version of the GeForce GTX 650 doesn't require a 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connector, at least from the two models I've seen.

Most TFX power supplies usually don't have any PCI Express supplementary power connectors.
