It's funny that you say that though. Because the first time I inserted it I must have put it in to hard or something because I did infact push the CPU in to hard, and of course it bent the pins. It's quite funny actually but your right it's pretty much impossible because they do go in only one way. The bar won't go down any other way which is always a nice thing but still I managed to do it. It's possible the pins were already bent however I will make sure that I check them from now on lol. Though I do have to admit that put the CPU fan on it's annoying lol maybe that's just me. And yes @OnSceneReporter it would make you a builder but that is ok I promise!
