GTX 750 requires a minimum of 300W.

Check out the PSU Requirements on the bottom right of this reply.
 
You will be able to tell if you need a new PSU if you install the graphics card and run a game. Run HWMonitor and if it starts to get really hot that means that your graphics card is trying to pull power out of your PSU to keep it alive. Same deal if it just crashes.

If you decide to do it or not, I still highly suggest you get a better PSU and maybe one that's a little over the power you need in case you want to upgrade again. I would recommend getting a Seasonic S12G 550w. It's ridiculously cheap, it's a good quality PSU (80+ GOLD rating on top of that) and it's more than enough for what you need so you have a bit of wiggle room next time you want to upgrade. You can get one for around $70 off Newegg.
