Check for issues on a faulty motherboard
I got a refurbished Gigabyte B650M Gaming Wifi board from the seller. It came in a bad condition—poor packaging and bent pins, though the CPU pins and system fans are okay. I don’t have any other PC components except the CPU, which is on its way. Since there are no LED indicators, I’m curious if there’s a way to check functionality without the CPU.
The situation looks tough, especially with those damaged headers. It seems another item might be missing from the board. Unless you paid a very low price, I’d probably just return it to avoid any unexpected problems.
Sure, I've received the refund from the seller, but the buyer mentioned I can use the board and I'll definitely give it another shot.
