The floor was wood, i couldnt see any visual issue with the pins.
I dont have gpu, drives and psu yet. Is there a way to check if it works?
 
Solution
The CPU pins are BY FAR the most vulnerable part of the CPU. If the CPU was inside the plastic carrier, and there are no bent pins, there is a decent chance the CPU was unharmed. You cannot be 100% without running it in a PC, and doing a stress test though.
