ASUS P5K64 WS Continual Restart

Hi all,

I recently opened up my computer of I believe now 3 years for dust cleaning, replacement of a failing harddrive, and replacement of heat paste. Unfortunately, now that I connect everything back up, it sticks in an infinite loop of restarts after 2-ish seconds, never booting or going to BIOS.

What I've tried already:
- Reseating RAM and video card
- Ensured heatsink was secured
- Attempted start with only RAM, video card, and CPU

Now, I also managed to be a gigantic idiot and bend one of the pins in my CPU socket. Below are pictures. What makes me think this is the problem is that when I remove my CPU, the fans all start and spin normally (but with no boot obviously).

I suppose my question is: Is it plausible I can fix this (or should I go ahead and start looking at new mobos) and is my stupidity the cause of this problem?

Thanks!
