It could be something else. When I first bought my 9600GT, and tried it on my 300W PSU. After the driver installation, the PC didn't start. So, my dad took the CPU to change its power supply, but that DIDN'T work. So the shopdude gave us an Acer branded cpu for 2000 extra rupees with a 300W PSU. And the card worked flawlessly.

My point is, the card could have damaged something else besides the PSU as well.

PSU seems fine. A bit on the higher side but not critical. Failure is anything above 12.5 and below 11.6

Plug in the GPU and gave another screen shot if possible.

Possible faulty PCI-e connectors or a rail of your psu.

Check with another psu that is known to be working. If it still doesn't work, check another GPU. If another GPU works, fried GPU/faulty gpu that's either drawing too much power due to a short circuit, or not letting enough power to boot, through (6 pin connector ON the gpu kaput). If another GPU doesn't work, get a new motherboard.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
