As I was taking apart my computer I was trying to get the CPU cover back on my Mobo (Asus Z97-A). My hand slipped and I bent a pin on my mobo. Shortly after that I bent the pin back as well as I could. From what it looks like it isn't perfect but pretty close to it. I did a test boot to see if it would work and everything seems to be okay as it detected the CPU on startup. I was wondering if I should still get a new motherboard just to be safe. From what I understand if the bent pin were to cause any problems, the CPU wouldn't even be detected in the first place. Thanks to everyone who replies.
