Give your psu a try before buying another.

 

[sharoz1]

thanX for replay can it damage gts 250?

 

[kikireeki]

afaik: It is the psu that could be damaged or fail under overload, not the VGA. in some cases vga or system overheat and instability may indicate a faulty PSU as well.

But a PSU could go wrong and that's when they're unpredictable.

@OP
Never get a cheap PSU, the Corsair that was recommended would be a good choice. If you're uncertain about your current PSU, don't risk it.

Those cheap Coolermaster PSUs are garbage; found in competent technical reviews (those with load testing, waveform analysis, etc) to not be capable of outputting what's on their label. ANY of the Corsairs listed will be good. I've never read a bad competent technical review of a Corsair PSU (nor of Seasonic, or Antec).

 

[sharoz1]

thanx but no prob if psu burnz hehe..

 

[Onus]

Wrong. A PSU that burns sometimes does so in a manner that destroys attached components. Even professional reviewers occasionally lose test equipment that way.

thanX for that i will keep everything in its place...
