I just accidentally bent a CPU pin on my AM5 motherboard while trying to take the CPU out. It's now leaning a bit to the left. Do you think my setup will still work normally?

Don't sweat it! There are plenty of extra pins around; you have backups in case one doesn't connect properly. You're good!
Why not just give it a try? You might be surprised!
Most likely, it'll work just fine! When you push the CPU down, it applies a lot of pressure on the pins, so they should make good contact. Don't worry too much!
Ouch, I can feel that pain! Good luck!

That’s what I was hoping too! Just started my PC build and already had a mini panic attack. Thanks for the reassurance!
