Bent pins

[Cheki]

So I recently decided to re paste and change the motherboard I was using for my old pc, its a ryzen 1500x using the stock cooler, when I removed it from the old motherboard the cooler came off with the cpu still attached, checked all the pins and found there was no damage or missing pins ( found out this is common and it shouldn't be an issue) after finally getting the cpu off of the cooler, it flipped and fell, and I noticed that a single pin was bent by around a 75 degree angle ( noticable but not a huge bend) I was able to straighten it and now it is at about a 1 - 3 degrees off of perfect, I was able to get it to sit in the cpu socket perfectly fine and lock into place, should this be an issue going forward? I haven't booted the system yet since I need to build it later tomorrow but I was wondering if this pin could be an issue

Man, I really have to say, you're a lucky boi that you only bent one pin.

 

Perhaps as long as the pin (and ofc the whole CPU) went inside to the socket perfectly, it'd be fine.

won't know till you boot it up, but is probably fine. sounds like you got pretty lucky.

As long as all the pins are making contact in the socket, it'll operate like nothing is wrong. My old 2700X ran with bent pins for a while (fell of a cooler, bent the bottom 3 rows of pins, that took forever to fix) no issues whatsoever.

Indeed. Go buy a lottery ticket (if you're legally able to do so in your area)!

 

I unbent LGA socket pins on a server once. They'll never look perfect again, but they made contact with the pads they're supposed to (and nothing else) so it's fine.

Damn, thanks for all the replies, didn't know that only one bent pin was such a rare thing to happen tho, I'll keep this thread updated incase anyone would like to know if it boots fine

For anyone interested the system ran perfectly fine once all put together
