It's probably the PSU unless the GPU fan is broken.

Take the side off and smell the GPU. Is the fan spinning?

Smell the back of your PSU where the cable plugs in, is the smell stronger there? If so, it's the PSU and you should stop using it until you replace the PSU with a better quality one.

That PSU is really terrible.

I'm assuming you're in India? These would be much better replacements:

I agree with previous poster - - it's very likely the PSU as Odyssey PSUs are cheap and poor quality.

It depends which Cooler Master 500W some are very bad.

The Seasonic Eco I linked to on Flipkart and this Seasonic S12II 430W http://www.flipkart.com/seasonic-s12ii-430-watts-psu/p/itmd5xz5bzevdbzp?pid=PSUD5XZ4PQNBPMES&al=%2FM92Ac6HnjK7TN%2Bbf6I1b8ldugMWZuE7JTWSsYnGIuUW5osDMXTohsN2NGnA13S9BRpFccA17iw%3D&ref=L%3A3009927758659797483&srno=b_2

are the best for your budget.

Are you able to buy from Flipkart or is there another store you prefer?

EDIT: Good luck with your exams!
