You know that step where people kneel to get knighted. Is it called a dubstep?

Tech questions; boost if you would.
I'm helping a teenager build their computer. They found themselves someone's old gaming rig second-hand. It had all the parts, but didn't boot. So they asked me. But some of my knowledge is a bit out of date.
I found that one of the pins on the PGA was bent (and wouldn't bend back). I am led to believe that you can't solder your way out of that any more, so it means the mobo is a write-off? Next step, then, is either sourcing another, or finding another machine entirely, depending on price. But the processor, memory, heat sink, PSU, and case are all perfectly serviceable.
Can I just find any mobo that needs the same CPU, memory, etc? Or is there more to it?

I made a dynamic text thing of a fine rant by Nish Kumar about Ricky Gervais. CW #transphobia, strong language, toilet humour, mention of sexual assault. Please share it, if you would.

TIL the Emperor Claudius invented three new letters, but they didn't catch on:
Ↄ (called "antisigma"), which goes "bs" or "ps"
Ⅎ (called "digamma"), makes the sound of "v" to avoid u/v being written with the same letter
Ⱶ, which was probably a short "i" sound
Which was a Ⅎery Ⱶnteresting oↃerℲatⱵon.
