Okay, currently I have a Corsair CX750M. I want a GTX760 but I don't know if it can run it. I know Wattage it can. But I don't know if I have enough PCI-E slots? the PSU has a 8 Pin PSU to 2x (6+2) PCI-E.
Would I be able to run a GTX760? Or do i not have enough PCI-E space?

What is your budget for a card? You may be able to get something better

I don't really have a budget. It's just out my wages haha, But I'd keep it at like 200GBP or below:)

The CX750M has 4 PCI-E 6+2 pin connections so it will be fine for that card.

I use one for a GTX770

If you can spend a bit more, this is a far better card and definitely worth the money

As terrabytez said the Gtx 970 would 100% be worth saving an extra 60 for, its the best card out there for price to performance also the 760 is kind of outdated now.

If you simply cant save an extra 60 look into getting a Non-reference r9 290, for like an extra 20.

Yeah, I think I will do what Terrabyte said and Upgrade the extra 60 for the 970. It's a good card. Will the 970 work with my PSU and CPU? My CPU is i7 QuadCore 2600.

Yes it will work fine. A good 450w unit can power the 970. Thats another great thing about the card its very power efficient.

You won't regret your purchase its a fantastic card.
