Maximum Graphics Card Power (W)
50 W
Minimum System Power Requirement (W)
350 W

so nvidia says you need a bit more power, however 50 extra W should be fine... (i say should) but it's also possible that it won't work. a bit less power hungry option is the gtx 750. safest would be to get also a new power supply, can you check if it's a standard sized psu? and that there are no vendor specific power connectors used?
