I have a DX4860-UB20P Gateway computer and i want to upgrade my Graphics card and i was wondering if my computer can take a EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti FTW with EVGA ACX Cooler. I am aware that i will have to get a better pwer supply with it too so i am also wondering how much Watts my new power supply should be so its compatible with the video card
