[SOLVED] How bent is too bent? LGA Pins

Solution
This: " I think I fixed most of them to align ".

"All" should align.

You may be able to recover if the remaining pins are all straight and true.

However, if there is any doubt then cut your losses (i.e., do not risk the CPU) and get a new board.

Just my thoughts on the matter. No problems with other suggestions and ideas.
