What kind of PSU is it? Is it a cheap one that came with a case? Does it have a make? Open the side panel off the case and look at the side of the PSU.

Note, a cheap psu can and will damage your pc...its always bets to get a performance psu..here;s a few..Tagan, Hiper, Coolermaster, OCZ, Corsair, Antec.

Also, if it is a cheap psu and it says it is 350w then it more than likely is not pulling out that and more likely 300w.

Can you also post your full system specs including your new graphics card. Its hard to determine a problem without this information.
