Hello earlier today I was installing a new CPU into my pc, after installing it I wasn't getting a display on my monitors, my initial reaction was to put the old CPU in, however upon removing the new one I noticed that a pin was missing http://i.imgur.com/BrXdEuA.jpg

I'm not sure if it was like the before but I don't think it was. I've put my old CPU back in and still have nothing come up on monitors. I just want to know if my mobo is trash, should be working, or can be repaired. This is my first time replacing my CPU by the way. Please help :)

I'm with Clutch. It's rare that new motherboards out of the box come with bent pins. You can try to convince them that it came like that but it's going to be hard to prove and I doubt they'll buy it. You can get a price to try and get it fixed but it will probably be expensive and depending on what you paid for the board it might be cheaper to just buy a new board.
