Tried removing the stock fan/heatsink to install a custom one and when I pulled it up, the AMD 64 chip came with it. Well, I didn't think the chip was suppose to come with it right? It was stuck to the Artic Silver 5 thermal paste. Well anyways, as I pulled it up, it slipped out of my hands and fell into the cpu and about 10 of the pins on the chip were bent. I am alreadly concluding that the chip is ruined and that I have to buy a new one, but I wanted to see what you guys think. I tried taking tweezers and straightening them out, but it very hard to get them straight.
