Don't even care about the pins desu, but Ryzen is shit on the inside and the outside

It's either that, or bent pins on the motherboard... To be honest CPU pins are a little thicker and it takes just a bit more to break them compared to LGA socket pins.

Don't drop it, you'll bend them.

My i7 6700k doesn't have this problem.

Isn't it just simpler because you have more "room"?

I'd rather break pins on my $50 motherboard than my $300+ processor

Came in here to post this.

Never broke a pin in my life but this is what's important.

Nice blog post bro.

Have fun bending your LGA pins back.

>buys $50 mobo for $300 CPU

It is not. Unless you swap CPUs daily or something. If you build a PC once and let it be it has zero relevance.

I always wonder how retarded you should be to brake a pin on mobo or cpu. There's far better chance to loose something to statics.

>There's far better chance to loose something to statics.

And even that is retarded as hell. It takes less than 30 seconds for you to get properly grounded.

what do you mean 30 seconds? I have to wear the band for a while before?
I didn't even manage to resist vacuum cleaning behind the computer, lost my motherboard to that

It's far easier to bend pins on the CPU than on the mobo.

I hope you drop it on your foot.

have you tried running them both over with a car?
easiest way to bend both pins!

I am a die hard Intel fanboy, but I really don't give a shit about this. It takes a few seconds to install a CPU and then you're done with it for years.

If this is in any way relevant to your decision over what to buy then you are an idiot.

You realize Intel has pins as well right? They are just in a different place

Don't be a clumsy ham handed jack ass take your fucking time and don't drop your 300 dollar CPU

Or is that too hard for you Cletus?

This thread is just as rediculous as the ninty/sony threads on Sup Forums

Well technically you can send it off and have new sockets fitted to the motherboard if it's cost effective.
Not so much a cpu PGA.

This is true, but can't we all simply agree that neither is actually bad other than in the hands of inept monkeys?

Easier to bend pins back on a CPU than on a socket by merit of it not being inset into anything and easier to wield.

They both work for what they need to do, but PGA is just weaker, it requires more effort to socket.
Also when you're dealing with a $12,000 cpu and a $1,200 motherboard, I'd rather kill the cheap one.
But replacing a whole motherboard can lead to other things being damaged too.
The access is better, but it won't save broken off pins.

Just touch the center screw on any outlet and you will discharge yourself.

Bands are nice but unnecessary, you simply need to keep your hand on something metal while you build (i.e, the computer case.)

Amd uses lga on their enterprise parts. PGA on consumer parts to cut costs. And I personally find it more finicky to socket an lga cpu, but neither are particularly difficult. Honestly, though if you're dealing with electronics valued in the tens of thousands of dollars, there really is no excuse for you to fuck it up doing something as simple as installing the hardware.

>spend 15 seconds worrying about inserting the CPU correctly
>never have to do it again for another 5+ years

Unless your job is to switch CPUs around all day it'll never matter to you, but if it is your job you're probably not a butterfingers by that point to worry in the first place.

If you look at the data sheet for an AMD cpu you'll see that ~100 of those ~1000 are VDD, and another ~100 are VSS. If you broke one off, would it still work? That is, is it internally connected and the multiple pins are a method of spreading current, or is each individually powering different sections?

Enjoy your pins on the motherboard, faget.

You can potentially solder a new socket onto that. You can't do that on a cpu if the pins get broken.

>PGA is just weaker, it requires more effort to socket
nonsense.

>im so fat my big fingers bend pins on the cpu
>e-enjoy your p-pins on your c-cpu..

>thinks his motherboard is a bottleneck

>spending time and money by buying a replacement socket and soldering it on instead of working 1 extra hour and buy a new motherboard.

You dont know how to spend your time left in life on the right choices, but then again, how do I? Spending my time here...

The pins are longer and very thin now. You also have to put in a lot of effort to align the cpu perfectly to socket it, or you can fuck it up.

With LGA you just grab it by the sides, get it mostly lined up and close, then drop it on.
