I was testing Dual Memory and XMP on my Extreme4 ASRock Z97 mobo by moving from the single channel slots to dual and it wouldn't boot due to incompatibility, not knowing this, I saw posts about possible bent CPU socket pins. I opened my CPU, checked for bent pins, saw nothing, set it back, locked it in place and booted.
Only to find that I can't run games past 30 fps (prior 250+), Programs crash, CPU runs slow, etc.
Did I do something wrong? No pins were bent in the process, but did opening my CPU hurt it?
i5-4790k, default heatsink/fan. 0 issues with these prior.
also getting an A6 error on my mobo.
