Processor: Pentium (r) Dual-Core E6700 3.2Ghz
Graphics: Intel(R) G45/G43 Express Chipset
Case: Inspiron 560
Power Supply: Dell HP-P3017F3

My previous graphics card was an ATI Radeon HD 4650, but it went out on me. I'm currently looking at and AMD HD 7750, but if anyone has a suggestion on what might be better I'm open to it.

I'd like to know if I would be able to support that card on my power supply safely, and I'd like to be sure that I'm not going to be bottlenecked too badly by my other parts.

Thanks in advance for the help. If you need any more information, let me know and I'll get it for you.

the gtx 650 is a great card for the money. the hd 7770 is great as well but AMD hardware loves power you your psi might not be efficient enough. the gtx 650 is better then the hd 7750 and it is uses 10 watt more. you should go for it

The GTX 650 seems like a great choice. Can I just get a second opinion from anyone on whether or not my PSU could handle the load of the card? I appreciate the help, thanks for the responses.

I found a utility online and I plugged all of my specs into it. With the GTX 650, it says that I would be consuming 267 W. So would it be safe to run it on a 300 W PSU even though on NewEgg it says it recommends a 400 W PSU?
