I've had a Corsair iCUE H100i cooler working well until recently. After crashing in-game, I noticed the CPU fan header on the motherboard was damaged—severely bent pins. When I reconnected it carefully, the fan didn't start properly. Now, if I disconnect it again and leave the wire disconnected, it powers on but keeps flashing red like all fans. The ICUE program reported a pump failure. How can I fix this? And is it okay to run my PC in this way?

Computers need a CPU fan to run smoothly. It's getting confusing trying to understand your message—could you clarify which cooler you're using? Is something not powering on? Is it the whole PC or just one part? Please share a picture of the header and let me know your PC's specs.
