Question Dented am4 socket

[southcoastdj]

Hi,
Ive just managed to put some dents in my am4 socket, its not broken anywhere just got a couple of deep dents due to 5600x chip with bent pins(now broken pins and ruined) trying to seated due to stuck to the cooler, I've got another chip to insert (properly) im just wondering if all would be OK?
Any suggestions would be helpful.

Would be best if you took pictures(macro preferred then zoomed out), hosted your images on a site akin to Imgur and then passed on a link for us to see. Words hold little weight in this scenario.

Make and model of the motherboard?

You could resolder the broken pins onto the CPU's underside.

Clear, close up, focused pics are required for this.
