i bought a new GPU and PSU 1 week ago and installed both of them ,yesterday when turned on my PC then it was stuck on the bios boot screen so i closed it directly from the switch and again powered it on then it showed me an error " POWER SUPPLY SURGES DETECTED DURING THE PREVIOUS POWER ON, ASUS anti-surge was triggered to protect system from unstable power supply" so i googled it and found a solution to disable the " anti power surge protection" from bios so i did that and then my pc turned on but now while playing games say NFS rivals then 80 % times my pc shuts down by itself by making weird sounds "trrrrrrr" and screen with stripes , some times that screen is blue and sometimes red.
i have installed the WHQL driver 13.12c and i didnt clean installed windows when i installed my new GPU , i just uninstalled my old Nvidia drivers and installed the AMD's drivers , will installing the stock latest 12.13 or the 14.2 BETA 1 and clean installing windows will solve this?
i am using a UPS whose battery is dead since 2 years,i am using it becuz it have extra power switches :D 

P.s- i have attached the pictures of error i was getting and how it shuts down while playing games.

my PC specs are-
AMD FX6300 CPU
SAPPHIRE AMD R9 270X TOXIC BOOST OC EDITION
ANTEC VP550P PSU
CORSAIR VALUE SELECT 4X2 GB DDR3 RAM
ASUS M5A78L-M LX V2 MOBO

please help me guys.. thanx in advance
