Hi all, this is my rig at the moment. I7 3770k, 6gb ram, gtx 750 1gb 450watt psu. Want to know what gpu to upgrade to so I can play most if not all newest games on ultra on 1920 res. By the way im upgrading my ram to 8gb.

Hello... I would suggest looking for 25 or more AMPs on the +12VDC PS rail. And picking the Video card out first... because of the number of 6-pin and 8 pin power connectors on them... they vary by maker/model... some need two 6's or two 8's... or one of each? this way you will be ready for a fast install.

Hello... I use this chart to compare price and performance... your MB/CPU should be able to run most of the GPU's on top of the list... But your +12Vdc current rating of your Power Supply will need to be checked for the higher output current needed for some of these cards... your GTX750 was only about 60watts/5amps... some of theses cards will need much more B /

Hello... There will be a electrical spec/label on the PS it's self... open the case and snap/post a digital of it... There is more than One Voltage used in a Power supply... and they get added up together for a product Number/name... you will be using the +12Vdc from it for your CPU and New GPU. Also you will need some 6 or 8 pin connectors to connect to these GPU's. So it's a good thing to Look before you Buy, and have all your electrical verified before.

Hello... THx... you have to use an IMG uploading site and then post the link/address here B )
Basically for the math of it I need the PS +12vdc current rating, and the CPU and GPU to be used.

77(CPU)+150 (GPU)=227 watts /12vdc = ~19 amps. min needed from PS.

Does your PS have any 6 or 8 pin PCIe power connections?
