Is your Lenovo H50-50 a tower? You'll need to open it to check what PSU is installed. According to http://psref.lenovo.com/syspool/Sys/PDF/Lenovo%20Desktops/Lenovo%20H50/Lenovo%20H50%20Tower.pdf it could be:

Some: 180 watts, autosensing, universal (100V-240V)
Some: 180 watts, autosensing, 85% PSU, EnergyStar 6.0, universal (100V-240V)
Some: 280 watts, autosensing, universal (100V-240V)
Some: 280 watts, autosensing, 85% PSU, EnergyStar 6.0, universal (100V-240V)

Hopefully yours includes a 280W PSU, but it can be upgraded: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-E-H-K-M-Q-Y-and-ErazerX/Graphics-card-upgrade-results-for-h50-50/td-p/3268885

Men 240W ;( Sad

 
Worse that can happen if the PSU isn't strong enough is a shutdown. Your 240W PSU should provide 16A or more on the +12V rai; but a decent quality replacement PSU is not expensive: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371033 https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151074&ignorebbr=1 You'll probably need a quality 24 Pin to 14 Pin ATX PSU Main Power Adapter Cable for IBM/Lenovo PCs.
