Your story reminded me of when I set my pc on fire!
No idea how or what happened but the PSU shot sparks, lit up and tried setting the house on fire. Amazingly everything worked right after replacing the PSU, but the Mobo was the next thing to blow up.
So while they are indeed resilient af, you’re likely not coming out unscathed if sparks fly.

PSUs aren’t too hard to fix by yourself if you know your electronics.
Except maybe that one PSU I got for free that had safety stuff bypassed.
But yeah, a fire might be a pushing the limits.
