I have kinda a dilemma, where my motherboard died the other day, PC simply wouldn't turn on.
Now the problem is a few months ago, when I tried to remove a GPU, I didn't release the latch properly and it broke off when I tried to remove the GPU. Screws kept everything in place and the board ran fine up until the other day so it never really bothered me apart from being slightly annoyed for being caught out by that dumb latch.
The motherboard is a H61M-DPS, and I can't find any other LGA1155 boards that can support my Xeon, so am I screwed because of plastic latch?
