Hey, you're dealing with a tricky situation. Since your PC isn't working properly and you're concerned about safety, it's smart to prioritize fixing the issue before investing more money. Consider whether a new motherboard is the best solution or if simpler repairs might work better on your budget.
All things are perfectly in harmony. Only one title stands out.
The motherboard model is p8H61-M LX3 R2.0 with LGA 1155. These are designed for older CPUs where pin configurations remain consistent. The pins are located directly on the board itself. The CPU appears to be in good condition, positioned near the bottom of the slot. I attempted to reshape it, but it simply returns to its bent state. It seems specialized tools might be necessary.
Each pin serves a unique purpose. Some handle voltage, others send data to particular spots. If it's merely a voltage pin, it’s unlikely essential for the system to function.
