[SOLVED] Asus Prime Z390-a motherboard-Socket with bent pins ?

[Violett]

Hello guys ! After removing the I9 9900-k CPU from the socket, I found this.What is your oppinion ? Some pins are bent ? The system is brand new, bought from a branded builder store.

I see a couple that are a tad off, but it will probably still work.
Have you tried booting the system? Does it work?
If it dosent, demand a replacement system.

I tried to boot the system and it worked. I removed the processor to install it on my new Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master motherboard. I have to worry that the I9 9900-k CPU could damage the pins from the new motherboard, because of the bent pins of the old motherboard ?

No, the processor wont have any larger chance to damage the socket than any normal install.
If you do it properly, you shouldnt have to worry.

Thank you very much. I thought the same, considering that the pins are on the motherboard, not on the CPU, but I wanted to be very sure, because I don’t want to damage the new motherboard.I worked with maximum care, I removed the CPU just gently pulled it straight up, thats why I'm pretty sure I did not bend the pins, but the builder when he mounted the CPU. Is there any possibility that I myself have bent the pins in such way ? I have such a question because this is my first build, and I think that is impossible for the experienced workers in a branded factory to do it wrong and damage the pins like that. But, it seems to happened. Plus, I observed the pins imediately after I removed the CPU from the socket. My dilema is only for me now, but if I do the things wrong, I don’t want to repeat the mistake. Thank you.

Given the location, and degree of the bent pins, it was most likely not you that did anything.

Oh, you have right. Exactly, the location of the bent pins, and very important - the area of those bent pins, plus the degree of bent pins. I thought the same, but considering that I am an unexperienced builder, my first thought was blaming on me. Thank you again.
