So I upgraded the cpu and motherboard, but it didn't turn on because the front panel connectors were different, so I ordered a new case.
The problem is that underneath the cpu fan I still see a bit of cpu, I think. Every side is flush, but that end I still see it, I think. Maybe it's not the cpu because I see something green. ALSO, I put the cpu in the wrong way accidentally because I saw the arrow but it wasn't the right one. I checked the pins and no bent pins. When I unlock the cpu lock, I hear a big CLICK is that normal? I also touched the sides of the pins by accident. (I have big fingers.) Will anything happen to my computer or am I just being so worried for nothing? Thanks.
So nervous because this is the first time that I installed a CPU.
