The motherboard was previously used with an i9-14900K for a year. I had no problems with it during this time. However, during the process of swapping out my CPU, I accidentally got thermal paste into the CPU socket. I didn’t want to risk it and attempt to clean the thermal paste since I wouldn’t want to damage the socket. It has been over a year that the thermal paste has been dried in the socket. So, there is some dried thermal paste residue around the CPU socket area from the previous installation. I have not cleaned it or attempted to test the board, so I cannot guarantee functionality. It is UNTESTED. In addition, the JUSB port of the motherboard is missing a pin, as seen in the 5th picture. Other than these issues, the motherboard does not have any other issues.
