Depending on how hot it gets, either can happen. If it fried I recommend checking the size of your battery cables. Are they up to spec? Normally the breaker would trip before frying. I recommend spraying it with the air just to be safe. ALSO, if you accelerate and then decelerate very quickly, it can be a big stress on the breaker. If you need code to slightly slow down your deceleration, you can pm me for some pseudo-code.
