Hey, guys I was just wanting to double check here that my system could handle a new gpu that I'm planning to upgrade to. I'm looking to grab a GTX 750ti.

My specs are:
RAM: 6GB DDR3
CPU: Intel i5 2300@ 2.80GHz
PSU: 450W
GPU: HD 5750
Motherboard: I couldn't find anything about the board other than it's Lenovo brand.
it's a Lenovo K330 series from 2011.

I was just checking because, I dind't know if it being SC would change anything majorly. I just want to know if my system will for sure work with this gpu.

I'm not planning to run both the 750ti and the HD 5750. If that's what you meant by running graphic cards? and I derped with the linking, but I figured out why they were difference in price.
 


buying a gtx 750ti as an upgrade to hd 5750 will give you a smal boost of difference... around 30%
whats your gpu budget?

I could go up to $170 but, I asked here before about upgrading my gpu and someone suggested
r9 270 or 265 but, I'm pretty sure both of those cards require a psu upgrade. I can't really do anything else but the gpu atm.
