So this is a really weird problem.
The PC specs are
Ryzen 7 1700x
GTX 1060 6gb
AsRock X370 Killer SLI
24gb RAM
The PC was working fine for about 4 weeks after I first built it, then last night I got a new liquid cooler and I decided to put it on. When I was cleaning out the thermal paste from the CPU I dropped it pins down and bent several of the pins.
Watching JayzTwoCent's video on how to fix bent CPU pins, I bent them back to mostly the same position and installed the CPU and cooler and thought nothing of it.
But after I attempted to boot into Windows, it just freezes on the loading circle thing, never to move. I thought it was just the graphics card having driver problems or something, so I took out the 1060 and put in an old 750ti I had and it still went into the same freeze.
I would like any ideas on how to troubleshoot this.
