Solution
cobra 500 watt psu 80+ bronze..
If you mean Raidmax Cobra it's a bad PSU. It may very well have killed the GPU, or just the GPU dying but with help from the PSU.
Without physically being there and inspect the GPU with necessary equipment we can not say if it's repairable. Even if it is, you will have to buy a decent PSU to use, instead of that one before the potential repair or the purchase of a new GPU.
What is the make/model of your power supply?
Most likely, despite the 500w rating, it likely does not have sufficient current to run the 8 pin gpu connector that the gpu needs to run.

See if you can't test with a known good psu of sufficient power.

so i bought msi armor rx 570 4gb in used condition after 1 week my pc stops to boot when i unplugged gpu the pc works fine when i checked my gpu to mechanic he says there's a short circuit in my gpu....under the small heatsink it looks like resistor (mosfet) i dont know the exact name but he says its repairable but the problem is if its repair how do i know he replace all shorted those resistor (mosfet)
or he forget to replace any of one because on yt i see many videos where gpu works with one or two mosfet missing....is gpu works fine without those mosfet......
and suggest me best psu for that gpu currently iam using raidmax cobra 500 watt 80+ bronze i think its a bad psu and maybe shorted my gpu......
Sorry for bad English
thanks in advance...
