Guys, need some advice here. I have Asus Maximus VI Hero. However, I just found there is a single bent pin on the CPU socket. Not sure if it will be a problem. Do not dare to test it for fear that it would short my processor.
Is this a big issue or a minor one?
Can I just mount the processor to 'squeeze' it back into place?

QUOTE(ASUSmy @ Jul 22 2013, 12:43 PM) From the looks, it is very minor and i can say its very safe to install your CPU and to boot the PC. Even if something major, normally it wont hurt the CPU. The system will just fail to work properly. I suggest you to just plug in your CPU and use the PC. if you find any problem with your PC such as RAM having problem, USB malfunction, or any other thing, you may PM me. Regards Thanks for the reply. Mounted the processor as normal and then took if off. Now the pins all lined up properly. The single pin is just raised slightly (not awkwardly left or right) higher than the rest, so mounting the processor pushes it back to its original position.
