probably very very unlikely. it is far far more likely that you will crack the motherboard deck than hurt the pins. people have huge air coolers on their cpus. some are very heavy. then they think they wanna take their computer to their friends so that put the computer in the car or trunk or whatever, get to where their going, and the air cooler has completely cracked the motherboard off with the cpu in its teeth. cpu still works no problems whatsoever later, but they need a new motherboard.
