Dear all,

before installing the CPU I checked the socket and it looks like one pin is slightly bent.
Does this look like a case for RMA?
Hard to make a good photo but it looks clearly that one pin is slightly out of the normal arrangement.

Hi,

thanks for the advice.
Any good tip how to straighten one pin without damaging a bunch of others?
What is the pitch of these pins?
I used to remove bond wires 50 micrometer apart, but that was 30 years ago and under a microscope.
Not sure if I could still do that now, getting older.

Regards,
Andreas
