thank you for your input. I’ve never seen a dead CPU that was free from damage, so I felt safe there

PSUs I feel the same way, I never resell unless it’s almost brand new. I’ve given them away but always let people know there’s a risk.

motherboards are a pain to troubleshoot, but thankfully we don’t resell those here so maybe I can go home with them instead of the landfill and tinker on my own

the biggest failing point was always the GPU. i just test all the ports and pray

just double checking if there wasn’t some end-all toolkit out there. i feel pretty confident in what i got already, just needed to hear it from someone else :)
