Spilt some soup inside my desktop

As silly as it sounds, yes that's what happened recently.

So, I dropped a little, the soup is watery, nothing thick.

What happened in detail is that...

1) As soon as the incident occured, my computer made a buzz sound and turned pitch black
2) I turned it off, and turned it back on, and made a VERY loud fan noise
3) Wiped some stain off the top of the GPU, waited for the water to dry off
4) Turned it back on, now the computer runs fine (been 2 days)

Should I really need to dissect everything and see if I spilt elsewhere? I'm almost certain it didn't affect the CPU nor its cooler, most likely the GPU, RAM and the Motherboard. Should this be any of a concern in the long run?

Sorry for such a dumb question
 
I wouldn't worry. Once you're past the first short circuit there isn't much potential for damage. All thats left is the soupy residue that didn't evaporate which will pretty much be inert as far as a pc goes.
