get atleast 450watt, ideally 500-550Watt for a new PSU.

had your current PSU had 80+ gold or better then it would just be able to dish out enough power for a 750TI, but yours isn't even 80+ Bronze certified from what i could gather online.

the different certified 80+ standards range between 85% efficient for bronze to 94% efficient for titanium. you can read more about 80+ standards here:
