Hello My Friend wants to upgrade his prebuilt pc but he is on a budget. Real tight budget of 100$ so even though the 950 is a smarter option his budget and his 300W psu with no pcie 6pin. His PC is a dell inspiron with a core i5 4460 @3.2Ghz, 12GB ram DDR3. I think a evga or zotac 750ti would fit perfectly for his needs of overwatch and MOBAS. I think it will work but I dont wanna waste his money
 
In my opinion i Would upgrade the PSU to something newer that actually has a PCI-E 6pin but you can always resolve a PSU without the PCI-E 6 pin port with a Adapter LP4-6PIN For example

but if he doesnt want to get an adapter the 750ti would be the way to go since the tdp is low ,And if he does want to upgrade his PSU Than i would Recommend A XFX 650W Bronze+ PSU - It could be overkill but its still a good price at around £50-£55, But your Idea Is right Of the 750TI Thats def the way to go

I did recommend for him to upgrade his system since no other PSU will work for him. I thought he could get a new psu mobo, ram , case and a gtx 1060 as it is only 50$ more than gtx 950 but I figured that It would be smart, but a bit overkill for his needs. And he can get a 750ti much quicker

 



True Bro, i completely agree 😀
 


so do u think 300W is enough for https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Dual-Link-Graphics-02G-P4-3751-KR/dp/B00IDG3PRI/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1475089463&sr=8-4&keywords=750ti ? thanks dude 😀
