It could help others that read this thread to avoid the same pitfall.
I think at first when the cpu was sent to me , one or two pins were bent and went i placed it on the motherboard , the heatsink must have had trouble trying to adjust to the heatsink. Thus putting pressure on the cpu. Then my friend and I removed the cpu and examined it because the motherboard would keep shutting down after a like a second . So then we noticed that two of the pins were bent. We tried to straighten one out with a small plie and a safety pin, but one of the pins fell off, and we didnt even put much pressure on it, just pressure enough to try and starighten it out. So we figured that there ws nothing else we could except returning it to newegg to repair/replace it. So hopefully newegg will do this, since i only had the processor for 3 days , i ordered it last sunday 19 december and received it on wednesday december...
