Got bent Ryzen pins on your 1000, 2000 or 3000 Series CPU? Well today's ultimate how to guide will show you how you can have control over bending back the PGA Pins (to near perfect straight levels). This method involves using a mini screw driver (which I believe is the 1.4mm drive). And I show you how to take your time, be patient, and just fit that Ryzen CPU back into the X570 socket (or b450 or a320 or whatever mobo Ryzen motherboard you have :P) and boot it up and have happy days ago!

Also another tip before removing the cooler on the amd, run a light stresstest, the thermal paste will be softer, and cooler will be easier to remove.

Ita a good idea to do this if you can. I get a TON of recycled computers and strip them down. I hate AMD CPUs because of how easily they get damaged. I just dont have the time or luxury to run stress tests on the stuff I get. Wish AMD would give up the PGA design and move to LGA.

I actually did this yesterday, not even a stress test but played borderlands 3 for several hours before taking my 3600 out for new 3900x, even with it definitely warmed up and breaking the paste CPU still stuck to cooler xD, and bent 5 pins, ran a razer blade down the rows of pins and BAM fixed

A credit card is really great to get the rows to line up. They fit perfect between the pins and move a whole row at once, really good for that final touch and get them perfect. Also the pins fit inside the tip of a mechanical pencil with no lead good 360 control if your careful. Love the TYC!

My friend smacked his ryzen 3 1200 into his case while removing it from the cooler. He bent over half the pins. After 3 hours of work I was able to get them all back and only lost 2 pins. CPU still works perfectly fine to today. And if you are wondering why I wasted time with a 1200, I did it to help my friend and I did it to have some fun.

I also had a i7-6700K someone gave me for free when they bought parts from me. The guy had inserted it backwards into the board. The board socket was toast but I got the 6700K to work. I had to literally bend a corner of the CPU since it's LGA. Once I straightened it out, it worked perfectly. Pretty crazy what CPU's can survive.

I've been down this road, things I've learned. Do not use the pre-applied paste on AMD supplied coolers, wipe it off and apply something else. It can be like super glue hard to remove, I had room to twist and pull, made no difference, it wasn't moving. Ended up bending many pins on my R 2600 as it came out of the socket with the cooler. Bent most of them back, but 4 broke off completely after trying to straighten. Thought I was screwed, looked for CPU pin wiring diagrams (no luck there), decided to reinstall and give it a go, works perfect, even with 4 broken pins. Used a magnifying glass and if you have the right size mechanical pencil, use the empty tip. And nice work with that screwdriver! When you get older and lose your eyesight that becomes much more difficult.

I had the same nightmare with my 3900x (stuck to the stock cooler), got lucky and only had to bend 2 pins back. I used a few different knife blades and flat blade screw drivers, since it's nice and easy to get between the rows while stiff enough to apply pressure with. Once you get the pins straight enough to drop in the socket takes care of the rest, hardest part is keeping your hands steady when the cost of replacement and lack of availability is hanging over your head

Just an hour ago when i came home, i opened my CPU box to check out my brand new CPU that arrived 2 days ago. I noticed that a few pins bent, because yesterday i put the CPU in the plastic cover the wrong way, and i didn't notice it yesterday. Luckily, a relative of mine gave me a box of that exact same screwdriver kit, because i told him i'm building a new PC, and that i needed small and big screwdrivers for it. So i got lucky this time, i'll be building the pc in 3 days, that's when the GPU will arrive. Let's hope all the touching i did won't do anything to the PC, and that the CPU will work fine.

I had a Phenom II 555 BE, It had several pins broken off and some bent. I straightened the pin using some solid but thin tweezers. What I did was passed the two tweezers hands around some 8-10 pins on the x-axis and then repeated on the y-axis. Worked like a charm. I used this CPU unlocked to X4 B55 for 3 or 4 years. The broken pins were either blank or extra ground pins. Amd is smart enough to put less important pins, the ground ones and server use only pins on the outer rim of the cpu. That's my experience. If you want I could even send you the Phenom for inspection.

Also, if that case of the CPU still doesn't go in at one corner despite you tried your best to bend the pins straight, sometimes instead of inspecting it all over again, trying to (very, very gently) fit that corner into the socket first will get it to fit in, and you just tighten the socket to completely bend the pin back

The tray can bend your pins if you put your cpu in wrong way. Happened to my 5800x. Used similar type of screwdriver to rebend the bins to it's original shape. It worked perfectly.

Using a knife works well.Especially helps avoid bending the pins too far, as the surrounding pins will stop the knife

I remember two pins falling off my old Athlon XP 2600+ trying to straighten them. Just dropped the pins into the correct socket holes and applying more pressure on the CPU before locking it in. Always worked. Wonder if it would work on a more modern AMD CPU ? Can't see why not.

Thank you for the great Video. I was able to save my ryzen 3600. 1 pin was bent into into the cpu almost 90°. I Used a needle and for everyone a tipp to see it better. Use your phone camera. There you can really see if you place it as the edge of your table, 30-40 cm away with zoom. Thank you again. Made my day

I think a better tool is a mechanical pencil with a metal tube for the lead. It slides right over the pins and then you just bend them back in place. Done!

Use a craft knife (Stanley blade) you can bend the pins back inline with the rest as you work and they are so precise and you don’t use a lot of pressure to bend them so it’s nice and gentle

So i couple of tips i just learned from unbending the pins on My phenom X6 965. First look for and try to take care of the "obviously" bendy ones, seccond i'll assume Ryzen CPUs have more pins a there for a smaller gap betwen the pins, Jay from JayzTwoCents used a Razor for unbending the pins, that was far too small for my older CUP but i found out that a regular plastic guitar pick was perfect for the job, third if even after you took care of the most bendy pins, the CPU wont go in, that means that "all" pins are ever so slightly bended, but resist the urge to cry and you guitar pick to slowly crias cross the CPU opins, going line by line making sure that all pins are straight, after that it should gon right in. And That's it! Now you are free to cry from the stress and hopefully feel quite proud of your self. But the main thing is to be calm, it's not the end of the world as you may think it is, just take your time do it slowly and you can make it.

_As an anecdote._ When I was ready to change the Wraith Prism for an AIO, I didn't use my PC for 2 days (so imagine the thermal paste ...), when I was about to remove the Prism I remembered the method of turning it a little bit and suddenly ... The Prism comes out with my 2700x attached to it ... I think it's one of the 5 times I have been most scared in my tech life, so after a bit of movement I can take it off and observe the worst, like 10 bent pins. So with a needle I prepared to bend them (it is not my first time, since I do it regularly with LGA but it was my first time with PGA), after about 20-25min and with tears in my eyes, for me surprise my 2700x still works without any problem . In summary or TL; DR: do a CPU test to leave the CPU / paste / Cooler warm, be careful -with this bitch- Wraith Prism (or the little brothers for that matter) and if you have a bent pin or pins BE PATIENT because if they are not broken, they can still be repaired/bend back. Great video.

I've made your mistake on the 3900x twice now... My heart stopped. I warmed it up with a stress test, did the jiggle(may have been a mistake in the end) and it still came out with my Noctua D15, 3 corner pins bent out the gate. Then after managing to get it off the cooler with a hair drier twisting it I drop it inside my case bending the opposite corner. 30 minutes of bending with a sewing needle until it sat flush... with a tap at the end. All good so far. I can't wait for AMD to switch, AM4 is held in by a garbage slide mechanism relying on friction. Well now the pins are thin with less surface area and shiny gold plated copper to begin with, I can't change the cooler without risking pulling it out of the socket. The cooler and processor are one now as far as I'm concerned.

I like to use sowing pins for straightening out PGAs. The ones I have here fit perfectly between the bases of the bent pin and its unbent neighbour. I push it through for a couple of mms, then slowly raise the sowing pin from the substrate. Because the sowing pin is guided by multiple straight pins in the two rows alongside it, this will usually put the bent pin back about 80-90% to its original position, at most needing small adjustments to fit back into the socket.

I use a razor blade as it will straighten up the bent pin until it hits the row of straight pins in the same row, its quick and painless and doesn't require really steady hands that trying to bend individual pins usually pretty difficult.

Great vid. One little suggestion. If you have one or a friend, try putting a notch little ways up length of screwdriver. That way you have more control over the pin not sliding off the rounded edge, hope you get what I meant. I'd use a chisle(tiny and sharp(fingers beware)) to make notch, Dremel tool only if your really good at it. Not surprised they don't make a real tool for this. Keep on keepin on.

I bought an open box CPU (used warehouse deals) that was about $100 off, but failed to mention bent pins, but it had three or four bent with one bent severely down at 90 degrees. I thought about sending it back, but then decided to give it a try. In the old days we used credit cards, but the Ryzen's pins are too close together to fit a card in between them and for the 90 degree flat pin I used a safety pin because the better ones are made of spring steel and the only way to get in between the substrate and the pin is with the sharp point of a sewing needle or safety pin (the safety pin has a built in handle unlike a sewing needle so it's easier to grip near the coil). I place the cpu upside down in a soft edge (plastic or rubber type insert grips) vise so it's secure but not so tight it gets damaged. Barely put the needle point past the pin in so it falls away while coming up thus keeping you from over-bending the pin the other direction like we see several times with the screw driver - as that weakens the pin going back and forth. As you rock the needle down below the edge of the cpu like a teeter totter at the nearest edge the pin comes up off the substrate. It's better to do just a little at a time to keep from going too far or breaking it off. Rock with the spring steel pin gives you power and leverage without too much force and only having the tip slightly in keeps you from over bending as well. Then you re-position and do it again just barely putting the needle past the pin so you are only moving the pin slightly with each rocking motion. I find I have much more precise control using the rocking method over free hand and thus I'm not constantly having to correct the pin from over bending like we see in this video - lessening the chance of breakage.

How I accidentally bent my pins is my Ryzen 3 got stuck to my heatsink, I didn't use the right method to get it off (using a hair dryer and slowly pushing it off with a flathead screwdriver) and I just plopped it back on in the new motherboard I was swapping it into, and I bent a few pins, thanks for making this video, I'll try this method. Hopefully I can save myself time and money using this
