this is my graphics card ZOTAC ZT-60901-10M G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 660 2GB 192-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500270&fb_ref=Default , what power supply would be the best to get? i know it needs a 600watt supply but are there different 600^ watt power supplies that do and do not have a 6 pin power connector slot in them? or should i try to sell my graphics card and try to get this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487025? im looking to be able to play GTAV, Guildwars 2, heroes of the storm, diablo 3, and newer games would i get high fps on my current card like 50-60fps or only if i get the 750 ti?

It will somewhat depend on your CPU too, but I'm sure you'll be able to find a playable setting with lower resolutions and details:

For your PSU question, this should help you pick a good PSU:

I would shoot for getting something in the Tier 1-3 list, or similar.

6pin or 6+2pin connectors will both work for the needed 6pin connection with the GPU though....and most should have it. You also don't necessarily need a 600 watt PSU, unless you're planning on SLI'ing in the future:

the gtx 660 is faster than a 750 ti


this is one of the best 550w you can get and will easily run a 660:

fps in games depend on your whole system specs, without knowing those I could not tell you how the 660 would perform.
