CPU pin vulnerability and cooler suction during installation
Go to solution
Solved by IkeaGnome,
From how gentle it sounds like you were being, there's more than likely nothing wrong with the CPU. They're tougher than you think. Bend a pin? Grab a razer blade or credit card and bend it back.
As far as the suction of the cooler goes, try a twisting motion next time. Just twist and lift the cooler. AMD CPUs can get pulled out of the socket with the cooler and twisting helps break the suction a little bit. Especially after the cooler has been on for a while.
