So I was playing path of exile and the cat jumped on my desk and spilled my coffee into my computer. Long story short it made a wicked pop l, smelled funny and is dead.

Opened it up and my Asus amd r9 280 was wet all over the board. Nothing on my mb or psu was wet.

I tried my roommates old psu with no luck but idk if that psu even works.

Idk how to test or figure out what I should do.


Specs.

Asus p7z77v2 I think is my mb
i5-3570k
Asus r9 280 direct cu
Corsair hx750 psu
 
Solution
Then you are going to have to take each part out and try it in another system and see what works, and what does not. Start with the GPU, then the PSU. You can use a simple tester on the PSU first, but if it passes, you still need to test it in a system.
