So today I was changing the thermal paste in the CPU when I accidentally pulled off the CPU too hard bending some Pins in the CPU ( see the photos below).  Tried my best to bend them back where  there were and achieved it somewhat fine.IMG_20200927_161717194.thumb.jpg.6bbac77b32bb8f7177bc00a7289b98b4.jpg

After applying new thermal paste and cleaning dust in the case , tried to power on the PC only to realize it won't POST. I haved tried unplugging RAM, GPU, clear CMOS, reinsert CPU in the socket and nothing. When I hit the power button the only thing it does is to start spinning all the fans but not beeps or bios. 

 

So I just assumed something died, how can I tell if I need a new motherboard or CPU? Is there a way to tell without trying with a different motherboard or CPU ?

 

Pc specs are 

 

PSU 600 watts 80 bronce certified

Vega 56

Ryzen 1700

16 GB RAM 3000MHz

MoBo B450 Asus prime IMG_20200927_220156268.thumb.jpg.efc649532f96214b3c37702222cf40a9.jpg
