So I recently bought a Zotac GTX 950 for my computer. I installed it in my computer and for a day or two, it was completely fine. Till one night I started to smell a burning smell coming from my computer. I ignored it and just thought it was my new card revving up. Well eventually a hour later, my computers screen turned off and the computer was still it but would not turn off by the power button. So I had to turn it off by unplugging it and restarting it.

After a few hours of gaming, maybe around three hours. It happened again, but after unplugging it and plugging it back it... it would turn back on. So now my computer won't even turn back on. I opened up my case and my power supply was very hot and it smelled like it was burning and my graphics card was barely even warm.

I was on another forum and they said it seemed to be like a psu problem.

Specs from what I know:
Zotac GTX 950 OC
500w Turbo link psu
FX AMD 6300

I'm not really tech savvy. Is there any suggestions of a psu you can link me to? Also, how can I check if there's any damage?
