Is there enough water to burn?
One drop is enough if in the right place. And he also walked all over the board. :)
if the card was wet at the time of start, then the power supply and all sorts of power elements must have shorted there. for Radeon they are like this such a row on the top of the board as in the lower left corner of the picture,
