I have a XFX Rx 580 8gb edition and it’s a prebuilt pc from cyberpower and it was working fine with a few blue screens here and there but everything was fine until last week I accidentally spilled maybe 10-20 drops of water onto my case and it dropped down onto my gpu while my computer was running so first thing I did was turn it off and kill the power and then dry the gpu as thoroughly as possible and then I tried to turn it back on to see if it was working at first it was a black screen so I turned it back off unplugged the gpu looked for anymore water that I could see and then plugged it back in and the screen turned on so I turned it back off and let it sit overnight.
The next morning I turned it on and then restarted it just to make sure it was working and it was so I turned it off and let it dry for 2 days and then on Monday it was working fine all day no errors so I got off and then later that night when I got back on after about 3 hours of being on it just black screened so I turned it off for the night and got on the next morning and it’s fine from anywhere between 5minutes to 1hour and then it black screens and everytime I fix the problem by flicking the off switch in the back and letting it sit for about 10-30 minutes.
Does anybody know if it’s the psu or gpu or anything because I think it’s the psu because the water did hit the pcie that connects into the graphics card but I’m not positive and don’t want to wait a week or longer for cyberpower to fix it.
