I've seen that done.

 

And I never want to see it again.

Long story short, a friend of mine spilt some soda or something (a drink that went sticky) onto his laptop keyboard so he went full retard and put it in the dishwasher and washed it with soap and water. Needless to say he killed the thing.

I recently was at a friends home. He showed me his new prebuilt fancy rig and noticed some dust on the graphics card. He catched a bottle of glass cleaner and wanted to clean it that way. I was able to stop that before anything got damaged x.x

Will that even harm anything?

Well, liquid ontop of a graphicscard, on the motherboard and everything else should be able to shorten out a lot of stuff.

Only if the glass cleaner is conductive. (Which I have no clue if it is or not.)

My first rig took a lot of water from the ethernet cable (thanks based ISP). It just started turning itself off randomly but no shorting xD

I'm rather astonished the Mac display didn't crack when the reflection of his face showed up.

My eyes see the past…

My camera lens sees the present…
