Help, I want the gtx 750 with 55 watt, what kind of power supply and brand should I get so it will run smoothly?
Geeksquad told me 450 should be fine, what brand should I get? And instructions to install the psu?

PSUs are the easiest thing in the system to install. Just decide if you want the fan up or down, put it in the case and screw the bolts into the back end of it thru the holes in the case.

Here is Guru3D's power supply recommendation:

GeForce GTX 750 - On your average system the card requires you to have a 450 Watt power supply unit.
GeForce GTX 750 Ti - On your average system the card requires you to have a 450 Watt power supply unit.

If you are going to overclock GPU or processor, then we do recommend you purchase something with a bit more stamina.

The card only draws like 76 watts.

I never buy less than a 650 because usually the price difference with decent PSUs is miniscule up to 650. Corsair TX v2 or XFX Core Edition are 9.5 grade PSUs....you could get away with a 'decent" 450 if not overclocking much. Seasonic M series is also very good as well as Antec HCG / HCP series...... avoid the Antec Basic, Neo and Earthwatts, Corsair CX.

A 55W GTX750 shouldn't need a 6pin PCIe plug. As such nearly any PSU should be able to run it. CS430, Antec 380W green are usually my go to low end PSU. Any 300/350W Seasonic should also be fine.

There are many videos on how to do this. Just check out youtube or newegg.
