Undestanding PCI slots?
So, I have a HP Pavilion with:
Expansion Slots:

    1 PCI Express x16 (Gen 2.0)
    3 PCI Express x1 (Gen 2.0)
    1 PCI Express Mini Card (Gen 2.0)

Which I can't understand for the life of me, but all I want to know is if I buy a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 TI will it fit?
And also, what power supply does this take because currently I'm running 300V.

Put the GTX 750Ti in this slot-

PCI Express x16 (Gen 2.0) (PCI-E is backwards compatible so 3.0 is not required for that card, it can run on PCI-E 2.0 slots also)

With a power supply get this -

EVGA 500B - You always want watt headroom for the future, to prevent upgrading again. Higher wattage of this type is more efficient also.

Yes you can use the 750 ti, you can put it in the x16 slot. As for your PSU, You need to upgrade it too at least a 400w with 20 amps on the 12v rail(Reputable brand).
