You're probably fine if it still runs at all, but I wouldn't turn the system back on until you get your new PSU.

No, I would not turn it on at all until you have your new PSU. I guess if you consider not blackscreening better FPS, then yes. You have a shit PSU and overdrawing power on it puts you at risk of burning your entire system to the ground, trying to run it at all is extremely stupid.
the thing is i limit my tdp to 50% so i dont overdraw, will running out of power damge my gtx 1060, like it goes up to 1910 mhz and it only is supposed to go to 1708 mhz , im a overworking mu gpu, am i burning out my cores??? please answer

Overdrawing power from your PSU will risk damaging it, which will put all of your other components at risk. If you're not willing to listen to what someone answering your thread says then why bother making a thread at all?
