750W is more than enough to handle a 760. A 500W could handle it. Almost every card on the market will run less than 300W if its just a single card solution. My 7970 is a bigger power hog than most of nvidias cards and it runs on a 500W

Yeah 750W is way more than plenty for a GTX 760. The only other factor to consider is quality, and AFAIK Dell/Alienware uses pretty decent quality PSUs, so that shouldn't be an issue either.

Well I've been told it may not work cause of people never hearing of my PSU and to stay away from using it.

each 12volt rail has 18 amps which is 150watts each combined. sometime its not all about the watts its about the amps. it will run fine.

Have you ever heard of Chinghong? Nobody has and yet they make really cheap TV's that actually have decent quality for the price. Just because people haven't heard of it doesn't make it bad.

Your PSU is basicly Dell so no problem there. I don't know which exact OEM company made this model for Dell but it won't be a bad one so you are good with it.

Will it matter if I grab the 4GB version in power usage wise?
