Yesterday i bend some motherboard socket pin accidentally and tested it with my i7 6700 cpu to check the motherboard is working or not.

But 2 pins were shorted in motherboard and the pins were melted,i took it to the service centre they said the motherboard is gone,its fine,
now i fear has the cpu also damaged by shortage of pins? A small dot like area is affected in my cpu due to pin shortage i have given the link of cpu image plz tell me,is my cpu is damaged or not?
Sorry 4 my bad english,

If you had a pinout for 1151 you could guess at it but as per John the best gauge would be to either swap the board and test or have the shop do it for you while fixing the pc (more expensive).
