> You cannot crush a new intel or amd cpu, even with a hammer

All desktop/consumer AMD sockets are PGA (pins on CPU), so the application of the hammer would bend/break all the pins :( For LGA CPUs, sure :D

> Most stores have “configurators” (on their web sites) that show only compatible parts

You don't have to use a store-specific one, just use PC Part Picker. Heck, manually matching the basic parts is very easy.
