Hi Ben,

Try talking to Gigabyte Australia and they can probably help yopu by repairing your CPU socket. Even though this may be a customer damage or not as it is impossible to tell many Gigabyte centres will help out on a one off basis. Ask them and see how you stand. It is not an uncommon problem as the pins are very fragile and easilly bent.

If you have trouble finding their contact details try GGTS as that should go to them first.

Just enter your email address and click on the language of choice.

Good luck. ;)
