So.. My pc atm has a processor of an intel pentium with 2.5mghz if that relates to anything.. I know it has 4gb of 'ddr2' ram and the computer is 32-bit... I was looking online and saw that this card does not need and 8 pin connectors from a power supply from my 300 watt. But I wanted to know if it could actually work with the motherboard with drr2 ram as such.. please help in any way and tell me what I would need to have to insert the mother board

Provided you have an available PCIe slot, it should work. So your motherboard is the most relevant factor.

GPUs are generally backwards compatible with PCIe 2.0 (and maybe 1.0? Not sure). So you should be ok from that standpoint.

A 750 TI will add around 60W to your setup at max load (it'll likely never be able to hit max load with the bottlenecks in your system elsewhere though). While 60W doesn't sound like a lot, but that's 20% of your PSU.
300W PSUs (especially if this was a prebuild machine) tend to be poor quality, and degrade with age......I personally doubt it has the headroom to allow another 60W to run from it.
