I'm worried that the pins might break if I try to bend them back, one pin in particular which is quite badly bent, is there much chance of this happening and what is the best way to bend them back, I can't use the mechanical pencil on the pin that is badly bent, it's more than 45 degrees.

I made a mistake, the price difference isn't that much.

The 290x is 5.6 teraflops, the 290 is 4.9 teraflops but about $100 cheaper.

@04dcarraher: Thanks for the reply. I've just bought a 0.7mm mechanical pencil from ebay. I've got one more question, how do you get the thermal paste off the CPU? The heatsink and fan I bought has already got thermal paste on it.

I got the new heatsink and fan today. I tried to take out my old heatsink and fan but it was stuck to the processor. I probably used a bit too much thermal paste, I did separate them. Now about 4 or 5 pins of the CPU are bent. How can I fix them?

I've got a kindle fire hd 2014 version. I know some games are compatible with it like modern combat 4 and ashphalt 8 airbourne but amazon says they're not.

Is GTA 5 in as much bad taste as GTA 4? I hardly played GTA 4. I did play San Andreas.
