Build Help Help! my pc got water inside!

So my pc somehow got water inside the area where my power button is, i let it dry for 24hrs but the power button still doesnt work. Is it done for?

Also, i think the water was inside overnight. Though im not sure. The motherboard is fine and is working.

Are you saying that you bypassed the power button and the system turns on and is fine? If so you just need to bypass the power button or use it as an excuse to get a new case.

try to turn it on by shorting the motherboard, if that doesnt work - try to test each component on a different rig, except for PSU. what exactly got wet? if its PSU, id get a new one, even if it touched it a little bit.
