Hello,

I'll be upgrading my GPU to GTX 750 TI 2GB version(still deciding for gigabyte or strix manufacturer) from my current GT 705 and I was wondering if I would need another PSU.
My PC specs are:
PSU - 300W (don't know the exact model.. a stock Dell psu)
CPU - I5-4460
Motherboard - Dell Inspiron 3847
HDD - ST1000DM003-1ER162
RAM - 8GB Dual Channel DDR3
also got a DVD-RW

Thanks in advance

stock dell PSUs are often pretty strong, especially the delta brad ones, and I have read of 750tis playing happily on 280W, so In theory it should work with that one. be that as it may though getting a decent 450W PSU is a good idea (especially for the long run), as it is not a good idea to run a PSU near full load all the time.
