NOW NEED TO KNOW WHAT I MAY HAVE FRIED

Need to know what I may have killed on 680i.
PC shut off 3 x during last month for no reason PC
PC would restart like normal at times or shut off twice before I could restart it.
Today I cleaned PC fans like always with alcohol+Quips cats dust smoke etc.
A hour later PC cashed twice on vista startup tried xp1 time reboot.
Shut off no PUMP noise even with prime switch
Loud ac in window by PC
Found some heat damage on inside pump 110 v outlet to lazy to get amprobe.
Jumped out wrong wires to bypass relay and prime switch.
(For a split second connected 110 volts to a 4 wire Molex which goes to 2 fans + a fan controller.
then to new PS.)
Power supply was unplugged at the time I shorted PC.
Removed all wiring for 10 case fans.
PC booted @4050 as soon as drives posted I shut down do to frozen or bad water pump.
NOW NEED TO KNOW WHAT I MAY HAVE FRIED beside first fans and fan controller.
In 10 years of overclocking I only killed two things till now and considered my self lucky or carefully.
I plugged in a hot hd plug on a slight angle and shorted out the drive.
Ran a separate power line from a 2nd PS to a 800xtpe card killed card still cant under stand that.

I'm not quite sure how we can know what (if anything) went out. You gave pretty vague descriptions.

The only way to know **for sure** is to test each part. Anything connected to the PSU when you ran 110v AC through it could sustain damage, even the PSU Itself.

What are you yelling for?

Keep us updated though.

Well the first thing that I found is broken is your Caps lock key.

Replace the KB and ensure that the caps lock key is functioning.

All other parts will basically need to be tested individually to make sure that they arent popped.

QFE, infact I find that it enhances performance if you can permemantly disable the caps lock key. Shift is just as taxing on your system and should be used in moderation.

Took pump apart cleaned out large piece of lint from bottom of impeller.
Ran pump in sink seems good put back wont run.
Turned pump 90 degrees it starts to run.I fill the lines with distled water + shot antifreeze.
Lots of dark brown water came out of some were.(radiator)
Super Pi and games work normal will check out fans and controller tomorrow.
Dig it all fans working sure was lucky.this 680 been up for 3 years this thanksgiving.
Mb has seen 78 79 sli 8800 gtx now 88gt sli. Getting new Mb when next generation Intel comes.
This is the oldest Mb that I ever had.
I change Tubing + water every 6 months and its always looked better need to reflush.
I used some Q quensense and A ammoniia instead of antifrez and maybe the
ammoniia didnt like copper or brass.
Sorry about shouting I host a UT3 game 24 7 and use cap lock so players can see it fast
thank all you good people for help
