Why and how is it broken? Are the pins f*cked up? Water? Is the plastic broken?

Preferably include pictures.

 

Why would you need to replace the CPU and RAM? Even old boards can be found on ebay....

"Normandy" i7 4790K - GTX 970 - Phantom 410 (Gun metal) - Z97 Extreme4 (asrock) - 128GB Crucial SSD - 1TB WD HDD - H60 Refurb. - 7 case fans | G710+ Keyboard, G230 Headset, Acer GN246HL Monitor.

Quick thoughts on system: I7 is extremely quick and I'm glad I spent the extra for hyper-threading. I regret my decision to get the GTX 970, it has horrible coil whine. There isn't any excuse for this terrible whine I and others are having. I HIGHLY recommend a 144hz monitor. Future Improvements/upgrades: Rubber fan mounts, basic speakers, more ram (for a total of 16gb), replace GPU.

144hz is love. 144hz is life. I like to submit unfinished posts then do about 20 edits. I like the Night Theme too.

I'm from Philippines its cheaper to buy new motherboard + ram + memory cause I'll be paying for shipping and tax. Tax is too high here. It's also broken cause Slot 1 and 2 are having a hard time reading my new memory while in slot 3 its just fine now I only have 1 slot of memory which is limiting my ram
