Question Is this CPU fried ?

[Brokencomputernvrright]

A while ago my entire pc shut offer with no power to mb. I just replaced motherboard and it’s getting power now but no output to monitor. I have posted a pic of the cpu and there is a burn type dark mark on the upper middle part. Is this the issue? I tried using a direct vga connection from mb and I didn’t get any image. As far as I understand that means a cpu problem not gpu? Am I wrong here or could it be gpu as well or not cpu at all and entirely gpu?

Let's start with the obvious thing: the full specs of the PC in question.

Also the cpu is unlocked. If I replace it with locked will it still work? I don’t need overclocking

Yes it should work minus the OC, just make sure you reset CMOS/BIOS
