PT,

I have had CPUs with bent pins, and they were easy to fix. The pins on the picture look a little more tricky.

You may be right about Intel shifting risk to the mobo makers.

It would make more sense to me to continue the present configuration of the pins being on the mobo, since it is much more likely that people will be upgrading CPU than upgrading a motherboard while keeping the same CPU.
