Mostly just leave it be. The smoke is on the outside and as long as it’s visually clean enough it’ll be fine.

Make sure that ventilator fans still run smoothly, and as needed, replace those, as cooling is extremely important

Don’t a lot of modern boards have a sort of clear coating over the components anyway? Some sort of enamel like substance?

What is “Modern” to you? This is an important question. Are components originally made around 2008 still modern?
