is processor sickness contagious?

[aeion]

If I have Processor A in Motherboard A for about a year, and at some point heat or maybe something else causes processor A to become more and more damaged, and in turn begins to damage Motherboard A and stops working at some point.

Supposing that this is what happened
if i take processor B from MotherBoard B (Both in good working order) and put it in Motherboard A
Will processor B become damaged?

and also if i take processor A and put it in Motherboard b, will motherboard B become damaged?

-----------------------------------------------
i've got two motherboards that i thought were dead
then i went and bought another one and it has trouble booting with processor A or B after i've tried them in all 3 motherboards

wtf

No. Swapping CPU's into different boards won't spread any kind of disease. If the CPU wasn't set in the socket correctly, then yes, but you'd have a few bent pins at the least, and more likely a nuked motherboard.

Then again, if the pins are bent, you wouldn't even be able to spread the disease on the other board since the cpu just won't fit in !

On a side note, I don't understand how is it that someone can even bend cpu pins.... (not saying that that's what you did btw)
