Is this graphics card:

good enough to run games such as DayZ? It is the best possible choice for my inspiron 560's power supply (which is 300w). I am not planning on upgrading my PSU or getting a new computer though I know I can. I just want to know if this card will be good enough to run modern games until I can get a new PC or power supply.

Any answers with information would be greatly appreciated.

But are you sure that will be ok on 300w at load? The recommended PSU for that card is 400w.

Yes I am sure because the card typically maxes out at 43 watts and the rest of the system around 150 watts so max system load is just +/- 200 watts.
The manufacturers recommendation is always Higher than actual since there are many crap PSU's on the market and protection against liability!

Toms built an mini system recently using HD7750 on a 150 watt PSU! http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/mini-itx-do-it-yourself-game-console,3531.html

That 7750 card will be fine with your current PSU as it does not require a 6 pin pcie connector and only draws a max of 43 watts under load you will be fine :)
