does that gpu-z screenshot means that hd 7750 is running on pci-e 1.1*16

HD 7750 is 10% faster than R7 250 . So go for HD 7750
Both cards need no additional power connectors , just pci-e x16 slot . 400W should be enough

is there any compatiblity issue of r7 250 with pci e 1.1 slot ...i'm with r7 250 now cause it has got a whole lot of new features like directx 11.2 open gl 4.3 and 'mantle' ...i've seen benchmarks and they clearly shows r7 250 is more powerful in new games due to its new features ...i just need a confirmation wheather it will be supported ay a pci e 1.1 and a 400 watt non-branded generic psu .

R7 250 draws up to 65W and needs only pci-e slot. It should work in pci-e 1.1 slot of the same length x16 (!) - due to pci-e backward compatibility .Of course , there is no 100% warranty .
