Luckily all the cards look to be straight and secure. The only thing that did happen inside the case was that a slot fan broke clean off its bracket. But that is a light plastic part, and since the bracket remained secure there were no screws or metal parts flying around inside the case.
The case is an IN WIN. Not real high-end, but built pretty well and fairly solid. I like them for the side air duct feature. I hate to think what would have happened with a cheap case, like a Powmax or something. Probably would have crumpled it.
The CPU is retail Athlon64 socket 754 with stock heatsink & fan, and it stayed put right where it's supposed to be as far as I can tell from the photos. I'm hoping it didn't take too much shock.
I'm going up this Sunday to try and fix it, so I'll post Monday what happened. Thanks again for the input and tips on what to look for.
