Did I kill my Ryzen 1800x?

[InsufficientSleep]

My computer worked fine before I decided to upgrade to custom water-cooling. When I pulled my "old" cooler off it was stuck to the thermal paste so badly that I ripped the cpu out of the socket on the Mobo. Everything looked Ok so I just applied new paste and installed the waterblock. After a leak test I plugged everything back In to the psu and Mobo and turned on the power. The only thing that happens is that the psu turns on for 1/2 second before shutting down again.  When I un-pluging the cpu power the systems turns on without problems.  I have dubble checked the cpu and the Mobo socket and everything looks good. Have I killed the cpu? And  before anyone ask the question. No, I did not use a ESD wrist band :-(

That sounds more like a short of the motherboard, I'd try reseating everything as big of a pain that will be.

Does your board have one of those Q-code readers that shows you BIOS codes when booting up?

As long as you didnt rip pins off, it would likely be ok, the Pins are tightened into place but its lose enough to let the CPU go if it's being forced out. But yeah what GoochQuest said, just re-set everything to make sure you didnt pull anything else off

This happens, especially how the AMD socket just slides and "kinda" locks in place -- rather than a latch and cover that Intel uses.

Generally, if the pins are not bent / damaged, the CPU and motherboard is okay.

 

Pull off the heatsink while the CPU is still warm.

For future reference, heat up the CPU first, so it separates from the thermal paste (e.g. let the computer run...on Desktop, or stress test, etc).

 

If it is turning on/off, then best to check your power connections.

I have tried to re-seat everything,  the psu doesn't turn on long enough for any q-codes. When I remove the cables powering the cpu everything turns on again.  I did try to remove it with hot thermal paste and a little twisting.  Think I just have to go down to the store after the weekend and buy a new one. Hopefully it isn't my Mobo so the new cpu dies :-(

Yeah...Sigh ........ It works with a new CPU.  looks like I did manage to kill my old one somehow
