yeah mate it should be fine but its not a very safe bet depending on if you have 2 or more harddrives

bignastyid · Nov 6, 2014

Depends on the quality of the psu. What's the make and model of the psu?

Dark Lord of Tech · Nov 6, 2014

Depending on the quality , yes it can.

RealHardTech say a good quality 400+W PSU. Conservative, but that's what I'd aim for. eg Seasonic 430 - $60 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151074

Oh - and I wouldn't go putting it in say a stupid Dell or HP pre-built either.

At least its not Dell. But still a no name PSU. So that'd be a definite NO from me.

Dark Lord of Tech · Nov 6, 2014

A GeForce GTX 750ti needs 20 amps on the 12v + rail and a 350w- 400w power supply.

That Bestec 300w power supply only has 19 amps on the 12 v + rail.

Is this an hp ?

I recommend a power supply upgrade.

Yeah - the OP didn't take any notice anyway.

Dark Lord of Tech · Nov 6, 2014

Doesn't matter , he probably ignored it , please refrain from posts of that nature.

strifed169 · Nov 6, 2014

Yes this is an HP, so I should upgrade my power supply and I'll be good? thanks

Dark Lord of Tech · Nov 6, 2014

I would say yes , it's slightly under spec for the low powered draw 750ti.

Steven Bryant · Nov 6, 2014

a good note is that my mate runs an i5 4440 and a gtx 750 on 250 watts so you couldnt be safer

strifed169 · Nov 6, 2014

also I forgot to mention my current gpu is an Radeon HD 5670 so would this help any in telling if my PC can run a 750ti? thanks

Steven Bryant · Nov 6, 2014

well if its running a 5670 itll definately run a 750ti! they have very similar power requirements

Dark Lord of Tech · Nov 6, 2014

It might or might not run it , i would do the safe thing and upgrade.

If your running a HD 5670 there's a chance it will run it.
