Computer has no liquid damage power light goes green then orange, no fan spin though. Found a short on PPVCC_SO_CPU. Meter in diode mode Resistance to ground is zero. Is it a short CPU or can i check for something else before I give up.
Thanks

If is 000 in ohm scale, then is pure short.
Very likely dead CPU.

Remove CPU heatsink and check if overheats injecting 1-1.8V there.
Remember to set PSU amp limit to max first!
