What are the chances

Well if nothing else it's a good lesson not to be in such a hurry ;)

When you put a CPU in your motherboard, it's standard practice to check for bent pins (in the socket or on the CPU) before trying to mate them.

Thing is i wasnt rushing

I must be blind or something :D

Ive never had any issues with components before and ocuk have been great so i didnt really feel the need to inspect everything, i thought it would be fine lol.

The only issue i had was when dpd crushed my coolermaster cpu cooler once, i did post it on here but i just thought id straighten it out and fitted it.

I wouldnt even attempt to repair the pins though on the board though lol
