Second question is already answered by me. Yes, i put an i5 4690k on a z97 gaming 5 with bent pins and it burned the cpu. Tried the same cpu (on another, brand new mobo) that was working fine before and now it doesnt work. so main question is.: can a cpu socket with bbent pins damage ALSO the whole socket?
I remember when i took of the cpu after burning it, it had burned marks and the socket had the same marks on the same spots. Those this mean the Socket fried too? or it means that the cpu transferred the heat to those pins but the socket is still functional?
Another question: the bios shows up when the cpu power cord is unplugged. Anyone knows if these motherboards even turn on with a burned socket?
thanks
