Im planning to get a gtx 960 but im not sure whether i can run the graphics card as the recommended system power is 400W but my max watts output is 384 i think.

and im not sure why i dont see a 6-pin power connector hanging around since my graphics card is integrated with my intel core i5-2400 @3.1GHz quadcore

Upgrade the PSU,don't get the 960 since its horrible value get like r9 380

I'm a educated fool with money on my mind.

They say i got to learn but nobody here to teach me,if they can't understand it how can they reach me

Power and the money,money and the power,minute after minute,hour after hour

My Motivation

That PSU looks like a firebomb. Just get a new PSU.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Then what kind of power supply shud i be looking for(like the range of power output) provided that i will be gaming on fridays-sundays for 3-4 hrs per period and i hv a low budget 

And is replacing a new PSU hard? 

Like all those cables and stuff

And i think i might be getting a gtx 750ti as im not the avid gamer and i dont play highly demanding games
