Bent Motherboard Socket Pins

Lukasz_10 · Feb 12, 2018

Hello,
I just received a Asus Z97 motherboard off Ebay which said was in good working condition. The only concern I have is these 2 bent pins https://imgur.com/a/l0sGm It looks like the middle of the pins are bent and I'm not sure if its going to be a big problem. Please answer. Thanks

if any of the pins are bent then it would be best to return it before its too late. bent pins may render it useless or cause major problems running the CPU

I wouldn't accept it.

Is it possible I can straighten them out and then work fine with no issues?

Lukasz_10 :

It is "possible".

One of my systems a year ago
Bent motherboard pins
Before - No boot

After - boot success

----------------------------------

It is also possible that you break those pins off completely.

Problem is it looks like middle of pins are bent. Not sure what tool to use for this without damaging pins.

Lukasz_10 :

If you mess with it and break it more, there will be no refund.

It arrived damaged.
Send it back.

I tested it today and motherboard was not working. Monitor was not showing any picture and video card fan was turning on and off in a loop. Returning it tomorrow.
