I accidentally knocked a bottle of 70% isopropyl alcohol down and it splashed onto my graphics card. I tried drying it by dabbing with paper towels. Should it be okay? Kind of worried :s

You should be just fine as long as you let it dry completely before trying to power it up again. 70% isopropyl alcohol doesn't evaporate quite as cleanly as 99.9%, but shouldn't cause any problems unless powered while still wet.
