F to this Motherboard
Those aren't pins.
Those are LEDs, which make your CPU fan glow joyfully in the dark when it's on and active.
Ok
What?
I suppose he meant if it were lit in the dark, because then it would short-circuit and catch fire.
There are zero leds or CPU fans in any photos in this thread. I really have no idea what is being referred to. If a joke was being made, whoosh for me.
It's possible that there is a short circuit in the motherboard, the CPU could explode after the first power-on.
If the short was on the motherboard, the CPU gets no current and isn't a fire risk.
Those aren't LEDs they're turbo encabulators.
Definitely it doesn't look normal to me, better you get it replaced.
Where's the flux capacitor?
Close, but if you look closely, you'll see these are actually retro encabulators.
Kudos to you!
30+ comments and yours was basically the first one on topic.
And twice as many bent pins
sounds about right.
should be exchanged as soon as possible.
