finished product...its got a small glob but I'm gonna leave it. Last time I tried to remove a little glob like that I lost the pin and damaged the plastic coating on the substrate.

Man I just learned how to solder a little while back, and it is fun, after I finished my initial task I went around looking for stuff to fix with solder.

I gotta say that is a skillfull soldering job in an incredibly tight place, I assume the CPU works fine?

I don't know if it works...due to no 478 socket mobo to test it in. I did this for free for a forum bro.

Bent ones can usually be unbent with a mechanical pencil.
