Gigabyte LGA 2011 Motherboard Damage

(not the LGA 2011-v3)

 

Hey guys, I just upgraded my graphics card from a GTX 970 to a GTX 1070 and I have been noticing a slight bottleneck with the i7 3820.

 

I've been thinking about selling the motherboard and CPU for a little bit more money to get the Skylake i7 6700k on eBay. There's only one problem though,

 

The PCI-E x16 slot is broken, I accidentally ripped a broken EVGA GTX 970 out (replaced by a Gigabyte GTX 970) and the GPU Holder Clip snapped off and the inside of the slot is damaged (pins being misaligned). 

 

Is it possible to still sell this motherboard, and if so how much money will I receive from the purchase if 1 broken PCI-E slot (CPU Pins, RAM, 2 PCI-E x8 Slots still work)

Possible to sell, but I think you should make it cheap cuz 16X slot's broken... Also, do what markiplier said. NO REFUNDS :3
