Does this CPU socket have bent pins ?

Hi

My CPU died after six months of use.
It was probably heat related as the technician said but I started thinking what else might have happened.

I remember when I bought the motherboard I tried to forcefully put a CPU that was not meant for that socket type so I might have bent some pins doing that.

I don't know if that problem could last for 6 months and than kill the CPU.
But since I am buying a new cpu I wanted to make sure the socket is in good condition .
Can you just check the pictures and say if you see any thing wrong or bent pins?
