Thanks in advance!

There is no RMA for bent pins as it is considered physical damage. :(

If u are referring to ur Asus Z-170 mobo n still under local wty they will fix the bend pin with a charge of $50 no matter how many bend pin u have...I send twice 2 different board with bend pin.....end of the day they fix my mobo and never ask any charges.....very impress and thumbs up to the distro :D
