I am using a calculator to calculate my wattage for my gaming computer, but I have run into some problems.

CALCULATOR: http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp

The first problem is that under motherboard, there is no option for ATX, which is the type of motherboard I have. Would it be high end-desktop?

The second problem is with the video card option.

My VIDEO CARD: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Dual-Link-Graphics-02G-P4-2763-KR/dp/B00DHW4HS4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1373542640&sr=8-2&keywords=nvidia+gtx+760

I click NVIDIA and then go down and try to find the NVIDIA GeForce GTX760, but it is not listed there.

Does anyone know what I can do or if there is a better calculator that can help me calculate it ? Thank you for your answers!

The card has similar power draw to a gtx 670. I would use that as a starting point and yes. your board is most likely fitting into high end desktop(if it has lots of extras) or regular if not.

In general any quality 550+(you can get by with less, but I want you to have some headroom) watt power supply will run a system with that card without any issues.
