not with the stock power supply and not with non tower unit.

GT1030 is max 40w card with stock power supply.

75w cards are not supported with stock power supply

Without adding anything else GT1030 is the recommended card.

if MT (means MINI TOWER) put a new larger PSU in it first.

all my MT's here, and all are MT. have a larger PSU,  700watt in fact)(I never buy less)

and all run GTX1050ti or even the power hogging pig (GTX260 ) and a can game, all can , only FPS lacks.

The MT Can do it, even my 790 can, run power hog cards, Have boxes full of cards, from 30 watts to 350watts.

all run./in full 3d full tilt 3D and with FURMARK running, too. (torture) and with passmark  3d/2d running)  ok?

I think your PC is MT. I do. 275watt  clue. I am blind i can;s see your PC nor can see what is inside it.

But that gtx 750 ti doesn't need a 6 pin power (correction,  not need, does not have is the correct word)

the card uses 60 watts max, no actual card linked to URL with SKU, that means no size card known.

 

It just take power from motherboard   (true)

And I have 275w power supply  ( some have 200 watt are you sure? it is 275)

And my case is tower not desktop (still no case told of up to 5 types dell uses)

is it the large MT, mini tower that does have 275watts large ATX sized ,cubic, or long and skinny PSU>?

the 275watt has +12v rail 1 at 17amps and rail 2 at 9amps.

did you remove a video card? if yes what>? was it?

my guess is the main rail is about  100 watts and you have 100watt extra and with the 60watt card

added , only 40watts of what I call (sailor talk) Freeboard,( means extra power on tap) and is too small.

that is what I think and the post here on marginal PCs for power on this forum are endless.

why not upgrade the PSU first. I HAVE 700WATTs in my 3020.

which PC is it. ??????????????????????????????????????????

always but MT on the right and win !!!!!!!

which one/ MT is right sidewhich one/ MT is right side

Hi @crazycay,

I'm sure you've seen the answers in the thread you started.

And yes, you'd have to upgrade the PSU for the 188w card.
