    Make sure you open a window - if it was a blown capacitor, that smoke is partly toxic.

    you have Blown capacitors / your PSU (Power Supply Unit) just blew up.

    i hope it hasnt fried the whole of your system (graphics card / mobo / processor / ram because if it has, sorry mate youll need a new computer.....

    BUT if its just your Mobo / PSU youll be able to replace them for around £100 (Top Quality Parts)
