Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

You should think about breadboarding the system with the bare minimum components and see if you can get PSOT/display. If your system shut off immediately after the water was spilled onto the panel, then the he system might very well be a goner.

The desktop still turns on but it just doesn't output a display
