water cool loop leak help

[R3DOPS]

Soooo a week ago i made a water cooling loop in my pc.. just last night it started to leak and when i got up coolent was leaking outside my case. To my horror i found that the water was all over my motherboard, top of gpu and inside my PSU. The pc was off all night and i just unplugged it. do you think any of this is recoverable? what should  i do!  :wacko:

Wait the PSU was plugged in? If the PSU was turned on then its bad

It kind of depends on how long the water has been there. If it has been more than a week then there may be a slim chance of recovery. But take apart your gpu and let it completely dry. Put a fan against it. Than you can use the rice trick if you want. I would not advice using the psu. If water leaked on its pcb then it could shortcircuit and cause even more problems

is it worth voiding the warranty of the pus to clean it? and its been wet for about 5 hours

if your lucky everything may have survived but it does sound like the PSU could have died since it was plugged in and water got into it. Dry off all parts and test them individually if you can, there is also an alcohol bath you can do to try and wash off any minerals or contaminates that may have dried on the surfaces of the PCB or connections which can cause a short.

I edited my post above. I would advise not to use the psu as that's where everything is being powered from and you don't want to fry any of your other components I would imagine

No, power supplies can still carry power after being unplugged and its enough to harm or even kill you.

Rma the psu and tear down your system, leave it apart with heatsinks off and in light (not sunlight) and don't touch it for two weeks.

You can also use 99% alcohol and a new toothbrush to clean off anything sticky.
