Does my new processor work correctly?
Nope, those little power wires for my computer got plugged into both the main power source box and the motherboard.
The memory controller lives inside the main processor, so don't trust a blinking light right away to tell you if something broke. If you've tried swapping one stick at a time and your computer still won't turn on, then it's probably just that CPU that's failing. Both sticks likely aren't bad together; the chance of both being broken is low.
