Good news everyone, not only did I replace one CPU, I cannibalized its initial CPU for my secondary PC which I am typing from now. I realized a pin on it was slightly bent, so I managed to bend it back into place. Should have listened to @benis regarding the CPU cooler twist. Also the mobo backplate fell out. Thankfully I got it into place.
Given this is a stock Wraith Prism cooler I got off someone for free cooling a 3600X, I undervolted the CPU a bit for heat purposes. Not like my performance is worse than the old 3100 plus most importantly I've four extra threads now.
