I examined the MOBO and noticed significant issues. The GPU shows comparable damage. It seems likely the problem stemmed from a failed PSU, possibly delivering excessive voltage to the system.

Both excessive voltage and high current seem to damage the components, possibly indicating a faulty power supply. It might be worth reaching out to the manufacturer for compensation, especially if their warranty covers such issues.

Hey dude, seems like quite the situation you've found yourself in, its very much possible that the CPU and Mobo are completely dead especially if smoke also originated from the ATX power connector on the board, there is a slight chance that your RAM and maybe on a good day, your CPU could be salvageable, though all your hardware is getting old now and is due a replacement soon so if you wanna upgrade I believe now would be the time to do it, because it seems most of you stuff is toast.
