You will get the Yellow Light of Death. Usually the best way to tell if the RSX is separated from the board is when you turn on your PS3 the machine will make a "humm" noise as it shuts down to the red blinking light. If it YLODS without the humming noise then it is definitely a bad power supply but 90% of the time a YLOD is caused by the RSX separated from the board.

If your motherboard shorted out and burned is there a a chance the ram and CPU and gpu will be okay?

Yes, there is a chance. If the short was the motherboard's fault, the GPU will most likely be okay. The CPU is probably hosed, however, no matter what because it is so sensitive and connected directly to the motherboard.. If the power supply failed and overloaded the motherboard, the whole computer is probably fried.

What is a moutherborad?

a motherboard is the part of the computer that connects everything together and has all the components connected to it. The processor or CPU is the brain of your computer and it is connected to your motherboard. all the information goes through the motherboard and it transfers to another component. for example lets say you are watching a video on youtube, the information is downloaded from the internet, going through the network interface which is connected to the motherboard, then transfered to the CPU, which is connected to the motherboard, then the CPU tells it to load the graphical processor or graphics card or GPU (they are all the same thing) which is connected to the motherboard and then from your GPU it is finally visually shown on the monitor. in reality it only takes a fraction of a second but that is what happens and that is how your motherboard helps you and works in your everyday life. it connects your hard drive, CPU, GPU, and all other interface cards. if you open your computer case which you can easily do. the mother board is the big square screwed in that has everything else on it. .
