They dont stand up straight on intel motherboards, only AMD CPU's have straight pins.

Yeah they're not supposed to be straight, otherwise they wouldn't be springy which helps all the CPU pads make contact with the pins.

they're supposed to slant on all intel sockets. I saw it's an LGA 2011 v3 socket, and I'm rather shocked that you don't know this to be completely honest

Not criticizing or whatever, but I personally won't do a first build with a 400+250$ motherboard. Especially assuming he didn't research much, if anyone watches any sort of build log or reads any form of review then they'd know these kind of things.

I've never seen this mentioned in a how to build video. I've watched a few dozen of these videos too. just being a bit pricky for no reason.

I'm pretty sure all build logs have a "How to seat your CPU" section, and they usually show the socket and CPU pins

But don't specifically mention anything about the pins... or distinctly show that they are angled, etc. 

 

Not the point. It's not common knowledge, he's obviously observant and new to the craft, no need to beat him over the head for the question he asked.

Thank you. People should honestly stop calling people out and instead just educate them (me).

I'm only calling you out because you just dropped (I'd estimate around 2000$ on a PC) and you didn't know something which is pretty well known. I'm not batting you over the head for asking. I'm just curious what dumber things you did with that PC.

Not criticizing how you spent your money. I'm only criticizing the amount of research you did
