Bought a new Motherboard - can anyone tell me if there is a bent pin in the socket?

I bought an ASRock Z170 pro gaming i7 LGA 1151 motherboard. I just finally got all of the components for my new build, and I was about to start the process of putting the CPU in and setting the cooler on it ( I did not actually put the CPU in or touch the socket in any way - besides removing the cover to inspect the pins).

There is one pin that looks out of place. Is this a bent pin? Or is it all the pins in the top area? I can't really tell.

I apologize, I have an iPhone 4s which doesn't have very great photo resolution for such small components.

Please could you upload a photo as opposed to a video because it is very hard for me to see the pins at all. If you need an image uploader website the one I use is Postimage.org which is simple to use.

I already included an image link before the video. You can click on that to view photos.

Yes that is absolutely bent pin. Now there is some fix that you can perform on it if you want i would provide the fixes . But Its best if you contact the MOBO manufacturer. If you have a warranty on that there will be no problems.

Thanks for the reply. I bought it from Newegg on 16 June. I did an RMA and dropped it off at Fedex. 3-5 days before they get it back and ship another.

Thanks for the help
