I heard that there is GTX 750 TI model which has power consumption up to 150 watts with 1 additional 6 pin PCIe power required... What make it different and how it works? Anyone can recommend what are suitable PSU need to support that GPU? Thanks...

The card itself only consumes 60W, you must be looking at total system consumption, which includes CPU, MoBo, RAM, HDD, etc. All models from good brands like EVGA/ ASUS/ MSI/ GB are good enough to buy, they mostly differ in clock speeds and thermals, but any of the mentioend brand would be fine. And what PSU do you currently have? Even a 300W from OEM would work. If you're looking to building your own rig, what are the total system specs?

It's a very energy efficient 60w small graphics card that gets power from the PCI only, so no extra wires needed. It can thus be used for a big upgrade to older systems with older and simpler power supplies.

Sorry guys if my question make you all confused.. Hope this link will make you understand what I meant.. There are different at Power consumption menu...

I dont' seem to find any relevant info on that link, its empty, anyways, Asus is a great manufacturer, as is EVGA, feel free to get from either. Even a 300W PSU would work.

Oh sorry again.. try this link and look at power consumption menu http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/GTX750TIOC2GD5/speci...
As you said before the GPU consumes only 60w so it was different by this one...

1.if the card needs one 6 pin power connector , it draws power from the PCI-E slot as well as from the power connector .

2.CX430 , CX500. ,....

Obviously it needs one 6 pin power connector .and draws up to 150W since is overclocked compared to the reference one
Take a look at this :

6 pin connector supplies 75W at max, and the card really doesn't need much more than the PCIe slot power, unless you plan to OC it substancially.

Since it is overclocked , it draws up to 75W from PCI-E slot and up to 75W from one 6 pin power connector

OK guys I got it.. so what your recommended PSU wattage? As the link give by rockie_ it state 400w PSU? It is alright?

Are you building your own build? If yes, then I'd like to know the specs to determine the best PSU. Also, if your build is OEM, even stock 300W would be fine, if you have the connector cable. 400W is plenty.

The 750 Ti isn't built to handle more than what the PCI slot can give it (66w).

There's an cryptomining article that talks about the TDP of the 750 Ti (How to Increase the GeForce GTX 750 Ti Power Target Limit), and they're setting the maximum power limit to 65.5w. I wouldn't think you would even pull that much power with a factory superclocked card. If you read through the article, it seems like NVIDIA put the stock power limit at just under 40w in their own BIOS.

Bottom line: the 750 Ti is a super light consumer, and the maximum power you will likely pull from it, without a custom BIOS, is probably going to be ~60w. Your typical 450w 80+ Bronze PSU will do just fine. A 300w PSU will be okay-ish, depending on which one you use.

EDIT: if you're using an old PSU, you should be okay with a 300-350w unit. If you're buying new, I'd stick with 400w at the low end, unless you have a really low TDP CPU. If you OC, then 400-450w is likely your best bet.

if you dont have Haswell processor , cheap is Corsair CX430 ,Corsair CX500

Yeah I want buy new PC later... So this build in my mind for now...
i5-4460 CPU
H97M-E Mobo
8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC1600 RAM
GTX 750 ti 2GB DCU II OC GPU... That it enough?

Yep, more than fine. A 500W EVGA B PSU would be great, as it'd allow you to have room for higher TDP cards like 270X or 280. Also, consider getting 600B, it'd be fine for even 280X.

Thanks guys for the information.. There is limited choice of PSU in the market at my country..
Corsair 450W is that okay?

What website are you looking to buy it from and what is the budget? Maybe we can suggest something better.

Here's the Power Supply Tier List. Pick one from tier 2a, if you can, or tier 3 at the worst. That should give you a decent list of PSUs to work with.

VS is extremely poor quality PSU, not recommended. 520W M12II is the only PSU good for the price, while being fine quality wise.

Much better PSU quality wise:

Power Supply: XFX 550W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($44.99 @ NCIX US)

Thanks but this PSU doesnt list at the PC hardware's shop here at my country..

I think it is SEASONIC brand and yes there is one in the price list.

Anyway thanks everyone for the help...
