Socket LGA1151 CPU pin configuration diagram
I received an Intel B250 motherboard from a friend with a damaged VCC power pin. When trying to power it on, the fans started spinning but there was no output. I considered removing one of the reserved pins and looked up layout diagrams online, but I’m unsure which pin to use. Could you help identify the correct pin?
What should be done? LGA connectors aren't designed for direct repair—your best option is swapping out the connector itself.
I would position the copied pin at the location of the damaged pin.
