I try with Intel Celeron G1610 CPU with no luck. Is there maybe any other CPU that can work with this broken pin or i need to send it to reballing?

Thank you, and sorry for my bad english, Phillip

I don't mind waiting, but i live in Montenegro and i don't have a warranty, and i think there is no official Asus shop around. I bend it back but still not able to reach CPU. I found mobo repair shop (only one in Ex Yugoslavia), it's around 50 euros to replace socket, but before send it i just want know can i solve it on easy way :) Thank for fast answer anyway, i will wait few more days to see is there any other solution, if not i'll send it.

I will try tomorrow again, you got right, even if i broke em i still can send it to repair, my friend goes to Serbia for few days so he can take it and bring me back, thank you once more!
