This is a noob Thing from my Side but after i open the Package from my new r5 3600 CPU the CPU dropped down to the floor. Good Thing is, the CPU was still in the Blister Clam and i can´t see any broken Pins or other Damage. The Drop was 2 -3 Feet. Should i worry about it? Cant test CPU yet because my new b550 Taichi is coming on saturday.

Thx Guys...
 
Solution
if it was protected in the package, the little plastic shell the CPU is housed in, it should be fine. protecting the CPU from these little issues is what that little clamshell is designed for.
test it out, if it does not work you can honestly say it was damaged before you removed it from the packaging for a return.
I'm fairly certain its fine though.
