Does anyone know how likely it is to get the CPU bending issue with the new Skylake CPU's? It's kind of putting me off building a new Z170 based system. I wouldn't be using a big cooler with it. Probably a Corsair AIO or a low profile CPU cooler.
 
This might sound like a bit of a dumb question, but here it goes;

If you've bent the CPU substrate in your Skylake system, how would you know without opening up your computer? I'm assuming the system just wouldn't post at all.
