I just want to know how much power this card needs, it says there is a recommended wattage of 350w, does it really need that much? I know some companies bump that number up just to be safe so how much by itself does it draw?

the gpu draws 49w on full load.. but since you have a mobo,cpu,ram and what not.. manufacturers bump the recomendation up to 250-350w more just to be safe

A pcie slot can deliver up to 75W to power a graphics card. Since a GT620 does not need a 6 pin aux power lead, you can presume that 75w is the max.
The recommendations will include a normal amount for the cpu and some peripherals.
They also allow for cheap psu's that overstate their capabilities.
