Hello, I want to find out if I should get this gfx http://www.evga.com/Products/Product.aspx?pn=02G-P4-3753-KR because I don't know if my computer can handle it (I think it can but idk) it says minimum 300 w and i have it and I cant get a better PSU so what do you guys recommend?
Can I run this Graphics card with a 300 Watt Power Supply?

If you meet the minimum requirements for the GPU, it SHOULD be ok. Keep in mind this also depends on Mobo/CPU as well as other components in your computer, which all will draw power from the PSU. I have seen computers power down under heavy load in scenarios of this nature. Also another thing to keep in mind is that the closer to the Max Output of the PSU you are operating at, the harder it has to work, thus shorter longevity. Add one of these to your purchasing plans(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438016), and you will have no issues.

Yes you can run it on that psu, and no you don't need no pcie cables! Total power draw on that card is 60w, pcie slots are rated at 75w. You are good to go, plug and play. Make sure you have an available x16 pcie slot. Good Luck!
