This is going to sound fucking retarded but here it goes:
I built a PC today and nothing came up on the monitor. I began to panic when I had realized I put the cpu in upside down so I removed it. I noticed a corner was a little bent so I managed to bend 90% of the corner back to its original shape. I took the cpu out of the motherboard multiple times following this but here's the thing: the fans, leds, and the gpu are all working fine except nothing is coming up on the monitor. Did I fuck up the cpu and should consider getting a new one or is it something else? Possibly motherboard related?

>I put the cpu in upside down >This is going to sound fucking retarded You are correct
>Everything turns on but no boot Either bad RAM or you actually did manage to fuck up the CPU If you have multiple sticks of RAM try booting with just one at a time to check them If that doesn't work then RMA the CPU you complete mongoloid
I tried with one stick of RAM and it still didn't work
Nolan Jackson

Evan Gonzalez
Newfag. The fuck does RMA mean? Feel free to tear me a new internet asshole
Jose Miller

Samuel Morales
He has an Intel chip so the pins are on the mobo
Cooper Gutierrez
I got it off newegg not too long ago. Do you think I'll be able to reveive a refund or even a new mobo?
Luis Allen
>>has intel motherboard, pins are on board only lga intel are pinless cpu and pins on board, so you are wrong, although they did specify their cpu. I would hope you would get the idea. I mean they had the cpus pads literally facing upward.

Inb4 the gpu/integrated gpu is the default only output and he has it plugged into the other one
Daniel Edwards
You couldn't have googled this question? Just how retarded are you op?
Grayson Lewis
Likely the i5 and Pro4 are goners. Gotta RMA both and more importantly not to be honest with the dealer.
Ryan Campbell
Read the manual next time you fucking braindead asshole.
I taught a 16 year old to build a pc over online and he did almost flawlessly. Only mistake he did was put case fan the wrong way
Nathan Price
>implying that googling a TLA ever works
Bentley Hill
How the fuck do people fuck this up There's a little notch in the CPU that lines up with a notch in the socket
Eli Scott
Kys, you shouldn't get to RMA it for being a dumb fucktard.
