motherboard Bend pins

[Garnczuuu]

Hi, i recently build my first pc and i felt in love with building PCs. It is very fun and entertaining. And i decided to offer myself on a local market site in poland. To build PCs, yet i realized i don't have a test setup, to test ran sticks graphic cards etc. I managed to snipe this motherboard for about 2$, unlucky tho it has bend pins, shall i try to repair it or just throw it away? Or maybe i can salvage some parts. Ty for ur time and help if u have readen throught it all and appreciate all help <3.

That's more bent pins than I'd personally try to repair.

 

You can certainly try it, just make sure you don't break any pins or bend any others. Worst case scenario, at least you didn't spend a lot of money on it.

Yes i know it's a lot of them haha. I'm still confused as to what the person did with the motherboard. Did they play with it like a freesbie

Things get dropped in sockets sometimes.

 

If you have a decent collection of hardware, it can be an occupational hazard.
