I'm in need of help, my nephews purchased and tried to build their own, here is what they bought:https://pcpartpicker.com/user/YrOfDrgn64/saved/#view=p6s6RB
They made a BIG error they tried to install the CPU without releasing the MB cpu latch in doing so they bent 2 cpu pins, I told them to let me take a look at it, I told maybe a return would be best, I told I could try and bend the pins back but not a guaranteed fix could have issues, so I did just that, but Now after windows 10 install, windows keeps freezing up, and sometimes saying your PC had an issue and has to restart, I did a clean install twice and it's still happening,I would update the BIOS on mb but if it freezes while updating not good, the only drivers in are the GPU, MB drivers (Audio,Chipset,Lan), they wanted it done for Xmas day and I couldn't make it happen, What should I do, should I tell them to return CPU and MB, could it be a SSD issue,Power issue,Ram issue? I have to give them the bad news today. What can I do to fix this, any help from you guys is Greatly appreciated on a Xmas Day.
