Question Bent pins on motherboard

[Kanjiro]

So somehow I have bent pins on part of the motherboard where the processor goes, I read you can straighten them but not sure if I should try.

Is there away to fix that? Like can I use parts of another computer to replace it?

Intel?

Some close clear pics would help in evaluating.

Fuzzy, but that looks too mangled to be fixable.
Replace the motherboard.

One of my boards, a few years ago:

Bent motherboard pins
Before - No boot

After - boot success

How much do motherboards cost in general? I have a HP Pavilion Desktop 590-p0033w. Also would it be possible to replace it with a mother board from another computer? I have a all in one that i stopped using it's intel as well. Maybe it would be best to just buy one >.<

That is not a standard motherboard. Proprietary HP. A regular ATX board won't work in that HP case.
And you can't use the motherboard from an All-In-One. Also proprietary, but different config. Won't fit.

Yes that's it, so i guess it would be best to just buy a new one?

A new what? Motherboard?
You'll have to be VERY careful, and get the exact replacement. Anything else won't work.

Alright thank you

What a mess!!
Bent pins come from not dropping the processor in cleanly and needing to smoosh it around to settle.
Sorry, it will be difficult to repair.
Bent pins are never covered under warranty.
Take the motherboard to jeweler and see if they can straighten things out.
It costs some $50 to have a socket replaced on a normal motherboard.
I found a replacement on ebay which I think matches your pc:
