You've managed to bend some pins on Intel setups since they switched them from the CPU to the motherboard socket?

I've been using these two Athlon chips for paper weights on my desk for the past two years. (A 2400 and i forget the redish looking one). Still... perfect pins, only a little dust. Ok... perhaps a lot of dust.




Anyways, back to the topic. I must say that over 2,000 pins is HUGE! The chips that need such a massive number of interconnects are going to dominate.

Bulldozer? More like "swiffer".
