GTX750Ti and a 430W PSU Are they compat?
Hi. I want to get this video card: https://www.ple.com.au/ViewItem.aspx?InventoryItemId=620326 and this PSU: https://www.ple.com.au/ViewItem.aspx?InventoryItemId=616639.

Are they compatible and will it run fine? I have Windows 10 and Intel i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20GHz. I have a LENOVO 5536RES motherboard. Anyone know?

Yes, 750 Ti is under 65-watts TDP
So even a quality 300-watts PSU should do.
But yes I would recommend at least a Bronze 350-450 just to ensure breathing room.
Such as Corsair CX-430 as a better minimum PSU.

EDIT:
I can't seem to load those sites (results in errors) so if u could just listed the full hardware names / full model#; that would help.

Never mind, had u confused with another user who basically asked about upgrading the same system as yours.

Don't look at the Motherboard Model; look at the LENOVO stickers on your Case for the exact Model# or Product-ID. And no, not the one with the Windows OS Product Key; as u never want to share this.

Some LENOVO 5536 are a Mid-Tower and some are a Slim-Desktop-Tower; so they will differ in what might be compatible. For example the Slim-Tower version has a very small Power Supply, and might not support upgrades without changing the Case, if it is an upgrade that exceeds the original Power Supply.

Thanks but there's more to it than that.

Didn't think this model would be all that popular considering the specs.
Product ID: 5536RE5
There's also an S/N if you need that.

A PSU like Corsair CX-430 would be plenty; even for up to GTX 960

And it would fit into my case as well as the card? I wouldn't mind getting something slightly better than a GTX750Ti, but I feel like I'm pushing my limits already when it comes to getting it to actually fit into my PC.

That's helpful info, thanks.

Best bet is get a GTX 750 or 750 Ti that only physically takes up a single slot for Case/System such as yours.

I would not go putting a GTX 960 in that system.

For your system, avoid GPU cards that actually require it use 2-expansion-slots for it to fit.

Does the GTX750Ti I linked only take up one slot?
And just to double check, I'm almsot certain this is my comp if that helps with konwing whether it can fit 430W PSU and GxT750Ti http://www.cnet.com/products/lenovo-thinkcentre-m90p-5536-core-i5-650-3-2-ghz-series/specs/

Ok here are some quality pictures:

M90P (5536)
1 ~ http://zapp5.staticworld.net/reviews/graphics/products/uploaded/554866_g2.jpg
2 ~ http://eco.hitachi-cs.co.jp/images_goods/large/1000931616_1.jpg

Each are slightly different based on year of release desgin and overall specs.
Which is yours most like?

OK good, cause the 1st one would not work if that was the one u had.

Neither of those linked GPU or PSU would work in those systems. As it is a Slim-Tower; not an mid-ATX-tower or micro-ATX-tower.

Do you have links to other websites in your country/region u can use?
Cause none of the GPU I am seeing on "PLE" would work. They are dual-slot GPUs.

Basically for newer GPU to fit in your system; it has to be similar to this design.
