hi. i have broken my cpu by incorrectly plugging it into the socket (socket 1200). is it slightly bent in two different corners, as seen in the photos - https://imgur.com/a/Id3LH3T
at first i wasn't getting any reaction from the power button at all. after realizing what happened and correctly repositioning the cpu, the motherboard now starts, , fans and harddrives spool up, but i am not getting any signal on the on-board graphic card.
was anyone in similar situation? am i done and do i have to throw it away? is there a chance to fix it by forcibly bending it back?
thank you for any tips.
The amount of pressure to cause that amount of bend has a good chance of cracking the die anyway I would think.
