Hello guys
its been along time i did not change the thermal past on my cpu so i decided to do and well i broke a socket pin i don't know how but i did took along time and searching to know that i have a broken pin.
anyways my PC is now working fine with 2 sticks of ram in only 1 channel so they are next to each other, when i try to plug in all of the 4 sticks it just doesn't boot at all even the keyboard and mouse they don't work.
i decided to stay with 2 sticks of ram(16 GB) which is enough but i feel something is wrong when i get any crash which i had even before i broke anything it feel its because of that broken pin!
I'm just not comfy about it.
the question is is this broken pin effecting anything else than not reading all rams?
will it effect overclocking and all other stuff that a normal cpu can do?
and can i by any chance fix this pen? i have been searching a lot its not a very easy task really i even tried myself to stuff in a pin i got from my older motherboard but i couldn't.
and is it ok running 2 sticks of ram next to each other(slot 1,2) i believe its called one channel?
what do you guys suggest (something i can do myself) ?
cpu: Intel core i5 6600k
motherboard: Asus Z170 pro gaming
Thank you.
