Pressed the processor too much while installing cooler

My Spec : i5 7600, gtx 1060 6gb, Corsair vengance, 1 x 16gb Ram, asus b250f gaming Mobo.

While installing Cooler Master Hyper 212x i forgot add additional washer(fig D) to spacer/screw (fig E) and then when i tried to screw (fig B over fig E)it doesnt reach so at that time i applied more push pressure over cpu lid / surface, later i found my mistake and fixed it wright. after installation  done i power on and played GTA V and saw FPS drop on most demanding area in GTA V. I was worried i might broke the Cpu by pressing too hard on the mobo, now how can i check my cpu health status?

In the bottom left corner, next to the stamina bar, you'll find the health indicator, as well as your cpu's level and current mana.

Yeah thats just it, it either works or it doesn't. if you booted you're good, if your temps are high fix your heatsink placement or your thermal paste application.

You might have bent pins on the MOBO. But if everything works as it should then you're good.

If it boots it works, why a 212 evo for a 65w tdp locked i5 though?
