Question
Behold the stupid thing I did!
I spilled a coke in my PC ><
It's my own dumb fault too. I spill things all the time and I should know better than to sit a drink anywhere near my PC. But I did. I went to stand up, hit my knee on the keyboard tray and the coke spilled directly through my top fan vents. Immediately the PC black screened. I (understandably) freaked out and yanked every cord out of the power strip as fast as I could. I had the whole thing unplugged in about 4 seconds but it's not looking good.
My GPU was literally dripping coke out of it. My mobo was also covered. As were all of my drives. I took everything apart as fast as I could and washed most of it in a crazy amount of 91% iso(not the mechanical drives as if any liquid got inside they are rekt either way). Things are drying now, will be a while before I know.
My guess is the mobo, GPU, 3TB, 500GB are dead for sure. 1TB and SSD maybe. CPU, PSU and RAM likely okay(if mobo didn't fry them). But yeah won't know for a while.
So laugh at my foolishness and pray to the tech Gods for my rig. I know I was dumb and I can admit it lol. >_<
I'm using a crappy laptop at the moment just to go online.
