Did I break my AMD CPU?

[G9XFTW]

I was upgrading to ryzen and had to take out the old platform (fx8320). It was glued tight to the CM seidon 120v waterblock. I used arctic silver 5 which glued it pretty tight. The system was cold and the paste probably thick.

 

So I pull it hard and omg, it kick the socket buckle open and comes out stuck to the block. All the pins are straight and seem to be fine. Also, I had accidently dropped it from a height of 3ft or so on the lid of the cpu. Will all the be enough to physically break it. I dont want to reinstall it all as I have no use for it now mostly.

If pins are in place it should be fine.

Arctic Silver 5 isn't suppose to be so sticky that you have to pull hard. As for the CPU it's probably OK if there isn't any visible damage. If you have a motherboard and some RAM that you don't use anymore you can test it to see if it still works.

When a PGA CPU comes out of the socket like that, it's fine as long as the pins are straight. Even it it wasn't it's not a big loss. FX CPUs have no value anymore.
