I have two problems with my kraken x63 currently.

I’ve also reseated the CPU, no bent pins or broken pads I can see. I downgraded the BIOS as well and same problem. The network adapter sometimes works to connect me to the internet (it always crashes when trying to update the driver). Is it a hardware fault of the CPU or Motherboard? I can’t see...
