I know I'm going to get a lot of crap for this but a while back I was taking a graphics card out of my computer and ripped the plastic off the PCIE slot.... I didn't want anything to touch so I cut all the prongs that were originally connected to the plastic. I used the motherboard for about 8 months before I just got another motherboard. The motherboard that's ruined is a GA-Z77X-UD4H and I got the UD5H to replace it considering you can't even find a UD4H anymore. I was wondering guys is there a company that will repair it? And would it even be worth repairing it?
 
Solution
if it has onboard video (cant remember with z77) or another slot you can use then put it in a server box otherwise say goodbye. its an ok mistake , it didnt cost that much.

Why do you want to repair it? You have a new mobo.
Unless youre using 3rd world child labour even if you found a place that would do it, it would cost more than the price of a new mobo.
This is only $100-$200 equipment were talking. Sell it on ebay. You might get a few $ for it. otherwise take it to the IT e-waste recycling dump

I was going to repair it and sell it or use it on my servers. I didn't know if repairing it was going to be with it but I figured they would charge me a lot and render my money wasted.
