I have a motherboaad with PCI E 1.1
I am going to buy a GTX 750Ti to play GTA V.
I know that bandwidth wise there will no issues, but I am worried about the power 750Ti needed.
PCI E 1.1 provides upto 75 W though it.
If I buy a 750 Ti , like ZOtac GTX 750Ti , without PCI power connector, is it going to be ok ?
Or should I buy a GTX 750Ti with PCI power connector ?
My PSU is Seasonic S12ii bronze 430 W

Actually even 750ti without the 6pin can be OCed easily. In hardware canucks review of reference 750ti they were able to oc their unit up to 1.3Ghz. Board partner just add one 6 pin to their card to guarantee stability although the card will not boot up if the 6pin power connector not connected to the card.
It will not going to exceed 75w. The model with 1 6 pin usually was factory overclocked model. Board partner made it so to ensure the card can sustain the overclocked frequency. So there is no need to worry about 750ti (without the 6pin) to use more than 75w
