that link doesn't work. This is just the wattage on your power supply in your case. If you open your case and find your Power Supply Unit (check the top rear of the case) it will have a label giving you the wattage. For your new graphics card you will need at least 250-300 Watts for it.
Try not to post more than once, the moderators will not be happy.

Most likely you dont have to worry about the PSU with that card. It's a decent card, but don't expect to play games too well on it.

Are you sure you have the right slot?
And no, the 300W means total for the power supply, not for the card individually.
