I had just purchased 3 used 5870s to get back into bit-coin mining, and bought a asus crossair v-formula and a 1045t, i had an old corsair psu also, i built the system, booted up just fine, but before i put it in the corner of my room to mine for the next 3 years i figured i might-as-well dust off-the cards and psu, but i was out of canned-air, so i told my wife to pick up some when she was out, she brings me home this 6 pack home from costco of falcon's dust-off, i sprayed off my psu and graphics cards, as one does, the next day, i boot up the system, can't get it to boot, keep trying all day nothing, i get home from the gym, try again and my psu makes pops, shoots out a huge spark, (think i saw one around the gpus too, which is making me afraid)
also is there any real way of knowing which if any parts are still good? lol...
