How does one even accomplish this? Dropping the board alone wouldn't even do this, almost intentional
You can see an angle grinder cut into the chip left to the cpu socket. Looks like the board snapped while they where cutting it for some reason.
Nice thinking! I was cutting it with a hacksaw and I snapped it by hand when I was sure I wouldn't damage the socket.
