ok i guess the title says it all can my psu run my upcoming gtx 750 ti ,i did some research and i was going to buy r7 260x but i found that it takes so much power and over heats pretty high so that leaves me with my GTX750 ti since its in my budget i included a picture of my psu specs i hope u can answer soon i can't wait to get it.

Gtx 750 ti only use 75w
Equal 75/12= 7A
Your card can easily give 15 ampear from each rail!
Most people don't know how to read graph in psu!
Written watts doesn't matter!
What matters is ampear!
You are pretty safe!
Go for Gtx 750 ti

Yes, you are right. Amps are more important than watts. How many amps your psu supplies on the +12v rail(s) is even more important. AMD and nVidia usually say you need a much more powerful psu because they are accounting for the fact that many people have sub-par psu's and that not all the listed wattage actually goes to the +12v rail(s) - which is what most of the essential systems use.

When selecting psu look at cpu power consumption and vga power consumption!
Cpu power(w)/ 12v = ampear reqires for it
Vga is same!
Your psus 12 v rail can give upto 30A
Because there's 360W output written in it!
360w = 30A,
Dosent matter its 450w or 1000ws
You just need sufficient amperage!
In your case you are pretty safe
