P55-UD6 socket burn

[chew*]

or soldered to the board in a bad way... that would explain everything... they bend or break and still make contact, but barely, which heats them up, plastic melts, which then causes a cascade effect of more pins bending or breaking...

This is why I'm curious whats going on under the socket.

From what lardarse posted the concentration point seems to be further in the socket than at the tip where pins contact cpu.

This is really weird and has my curiosity peaked.
