I'm planning to buy PSU and the only legit available here is vs450 and evga 500b.
I will be playing games like BF4

my specs are:
ASUS P8H61-M LX R2.0 LGA1155 PCIe 3.0
i3-3240
Palit gtx 750 Ti OC Dual
4g ram
1 dvd
1 hdd
1 fan

I always hear that gtx 750 ti only takes less power so I'm thinking that buying evga 500b is overkill.
Plus vs450 is cheaper than evga 500b, I might go with vs450

Do I have to go with evga 500b or vs450?

I'd go with the 500B.

Both will be grossly overkill since your system will draw something like 150W peak.

While that's likely true, the difference in cost between PSU's at this price point is very small so just concentrate on whichever seems to have the best quality.

Either PSU should be fine.
