I wouldn't use that PSU to run any setup. It's a piece of junk. Doorstop model!

Ok I'm going to try it out although I'm afraid it will start a fire cause its only 250 watts😬

If it were a reasonably high quality unit, with a clear label with detailed specs, then 250 watts wouldn't be something to worry about.

The wattage isn't the issue - it's the poor quality of the unit itself.

I wouldn't trust any specs on that PSU sticker.

All of the above.

Well I'm trying it out right now and everything seems to be working, I didn't try to game on it yet though

It's very possible it'll work fine for a while. But when it fails, it will likely fail in a fire-hazard kind of way, and take out other components with it.
