i have been using a huge phanteks ph-tx14pe pretty much nh-d15 size with no issues. it does have springs on the screws so they let you know when they are tight enough. but i could see shipping with this thing on causing problems but standard hanging  in my case it seems to be just fine. you could heavy handed possibly over tighten the screws but you would know your doing it as it pretty much hits a stop when the screws depress the spring

Do not mount the cpu if the socket is missing a pin. Replace the motherboard.

I have a ASRock Z170M-ITX/ac and its missing one socket pin.I suppose that someone broke off improper handling.

As yet I have not tried, I was wondering can it work withoutone pin and if there is a risk of damaging the processor?

I marked the spot on picture for missing pin - http://i.imgur.com/lhSfVCU.jpg

Thank you!

I have not heard any reports of issues with that cooler so it should be fine, just be sure not to over-tighten. I have a Corsair H105 on my 7600k and have not had any issues with warping. I think this issue was largely caused by large, heavy tower coolers in conjunction with moving the PC (jostling).]]> Sun, 16 Apr 2017 23:41:07 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1425&PID=27389&title=skylake-cpu-caution#27389 <![CDATA[Skylake CPU caution : I just bought the i7-7700K, and...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1425&PID=27381&title=skylake-cpu-caution#27381 Author: hydrogaming23

Great, I'm not surprised.

It's been over a year since this thread was started, and this "issue" has not become a problem for Skylake processor owners. I have not seen any mention of this with Kaby Lake processors, or that anything was changed with their construction because this was an issue with Skylake.

Considering the CPU delidding trend among some enthusiasts, if there was a problem with the construction of Skylake processors, we would be hearing about it from them by now.

Thanks for the response. 

I just installed the ASRock ixt. Posted ! no problem. May be something got into the socket on the other one.

I have to agree. I don't think the cooler was the issue.
