I don't know what to do, I spiled coffee all inside my computer, and now i'm building a new one, but I've reach my budget and the last thing I have to buy is a power suply, and mine have coffee in it, but it still run and provide power, should I not take the chance to build my new pc with it? is is dangerous for my other parts? (it's a 700W power suply made by thermaltake)

Thanks for your opinions in advance ;)

The more important question is why you feel the need to ask this question. If you feel the need to ask, the answer is self-explanatory.

I think my power supply is fine, but not 100% shure and I don't have the budget to buy a new one, so I'm asking, because I'm planning to use it on my new build

It's sketchy, it's definitely possibly a fire/cap explosion risk.

I mean, water dries, but coffee isn't just water. There's other stuff in there that can be left behind. I don't know if that's a big deal or how big a deal it is, but I'd at least be thinking about that while the PSU is running.

 

And probably smelling lovely.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.
