Well I know that much but it still has to draw power from the psu through the motherboard, it comes overclocked straight out of the box which is why I,m buying it, it saves a lot of stress knowing its stable but i think I remember reading something about it needing a 400w to be safe, but i already ordered because it went on sale but now i cant get a PSU for a little while

well if already ordered the gpu and have no budget for a new PSU,i suggest you to try the gpu and if you have any problem that you encounter(like black screen,display not responding) try to underclock your OC 750 Ti to its original state(look for the reference card).But I doubt that you will need a new PSU for that 750 cause sometimes those recomended psu wattage is a little bit exagerated cause theres so many users that have generic/crap psu.
