Can a processor burn out from overheating?

Question

Iron

Asus k50in laptop. There was no picture. After a thorough check, it turned out that the sowing was covered. bridge. The first rebol started the laptop for 5 minutes :). The second one is gone. But when they tried to start it for the second time after the reball, they forgot to attach the cooling and in a matter of 5-10 seconds the processor got very hot (the finger was burned). Now there is no way to check its performance. The question is. During the reball, could it happen that the bridge was finally covered and, when turned on, ruined the processor? I asked two masters, they say it is very unlikely, since the intel core 2 duo processors are protected.
What do you think?

Answer 1

Do you mean by reball not just warming up by chance? although in any case, you have baked the multilayer board several times, there is no guarantee that it will not swell and the roads will not tear, look carefully if anything is uplifted. percent check on a reliably living mother.

Answer 2

forgot to attach cooling

Maybe.
There was a case: I turned on an ordinary motherboard with Celeron without a radiator for just a few seconds - Celeron died. The motherboard with a different processor still works.
This protection will work with the radiator. The bare percent heats up VERY quickly and VERY strongly - the heat has nowhere to go.

Answer 3

Overheating protection may simply not have time to work if the processor turns on without a heatsink at all.

Answer 4

Guys, his north just died in the hands of the "warm-ups", it's good if his mother was not also fried in coal.
