my second cpu works... apparantly it's only the ram slots of that socket that don't work. the socket itself seems fine...
yay

@TopHatProductions115 yup. all i had to do was plug the 8-pin back in after removing the ram of CPU 1... i'm such an idiot.
i thought of it because after removing CPU 1 because i wanted to do other things with it my machine wouldn't POST. so it must have a cpu installed in socket 1 even if it's not plugged in. so i just thought like what will happen if i plug it back in... and it worked
all the ram installed is in slots of cpu 2, but it seems to be fine regardless...
