I was assembling a PC and it wouldn't power up. The motherboard's DRAM indicator stayed lit, so I thought the RAM was faulty. After removing the CPU, I noticed the issue in one corner (see the photos). I included another angle for comparison. Could this be affecting the motherboard's readings? Is the 7950X now unusable?
