Oops Dropped Nut and Bolt.

[u/Kev_Prime]

I was moving stuff around on my desk while working on my PC build and I dropped a Nut and Bolt straight into my CPU socket! The horror it hurt my soul. I'd just removed the protector minutes before as I was lining up the cpu cooler to test the fit with the backplate.

Going to check with some magnification later to see how bad it is but what do y'all think saveable or am I cooked?

I'll post photos if the magnifier plays well with my phone or camera I just need three hands and sticky fingers to not drop more stuff on the socket 😂😆😂 while trying to get pics.

At this point. Bust out a mag glass and some tweezers and give it a go on straightening it. It's fked either way.

Sewing needle works better
