Ok so I ordered components for a new gaming pc build which I already finish. Im using
Intel Core i5 4690k (Processor)
MSI B85-G41 PC Mate (Motherboard)
ASUS Geforce GTX 750 TI 2gb
16GB Ram (8x2)

and I ordered a EVGA Supernova NEX750B 750 watt, and now Im using a 350watt PSU

is it safe to play steam games? a quick answer would be glory!

Actually I thought it could draw 75 watts from the PCI-E bus at least that is what my Nvidia rep told me. The Minimum System Power Requirement is 300w. Even so, it is recommended to use a 350w power supply for a GTX 750 ti. I've built several systems using them and I actually prefer to use 400w, but hey whatever floats your boat.

If you want to listen to Zerk and run your computer with a 60 w power supply go for it. Nvidia says the minimum is 300w and most agree to add about 50w to the minimum to be safe. But hey Zerk if you want to advise the guy to use a 60w power supply that is your prerogative. You guys can do what you like, I'm done arguing over something so dumb as this, since I was just trying to help in the 1st place.
