Are you able to repair it?

I think this photo shows the state of the mobo after the repair.

The pin was crushed by the previous owner. I was able to remove enough plastic to expose the conductor. Then I used my 0.1mm soldering tip to solder a small jumper from the crushed pin directly to the stick of ram.

I wonder how tf they managed to crush just one pin. Also, if I understand this correctly, the motherboard now uhh... features integrated ram?

Run 4 passes of Memtest86+ on it. 🥹

Haven’t done that yet, but it’s pin 236 on DDR3 240 pin ram which I believe is a power rail, so low risk of issues.

Oh yeah, you're probably right if it's just power.
