yep, broken pins on mobo is much more a headache than on CPU......Those pins are better than LGA for the consumer market. More broken motherboards are coming with warped pins than broken pins on CPUs.

I've never had a problem with LGA though.
I've had many problems with bent CPU pins.
I don't want to deal with CPU pins anymore.
Motherboard pins break much easier. CPU pins bent but is easier to repair.
In the majority of DIY situations, the CPU is the more expensive of the two parts, so it makes sense to put the more delicate part on the cheaper side.
And here i was expecting ddr4>3000mhz

Even Cannonlake isn't 3000 Mhz I think. So it's not a big deal.
That's a great point, I bought a retail version of Windows just to avoid that problem, and it's already proved its worth.While I generally agree, Windows licenses are tied to your motherboard, and that can level the playing field a bit.
Officially. But recent rumor is stating that Kabylake will support DDR 4000+.
Why is there such a low cap on AMD processors for memory?
Skylake already supports in the excess of DDR4 4000.
No it doesn't, it only supports 2133. You can overclock higher than that, but it's not supported.
The problem is that even your finger can break the fragile LGA contacts. But the CPU itself is breakproof.
I had both AM3 and AM3+ processors and their pins was much, much harder to break.
Is everyone here on the clumsy side or why is it an issue to have pins on the board instead of the CPU?
I mean sheesh...people trying to find all kinds of reasons to nitpick. If you handle the CPU and Board properly...how is anything gonna bend? The only time I ever saw a bent pin was when a friend tried to build a PC and dropped the CPU...but you don't generally drop whole motherboards in a way that they would land on their pins.....
I mean...generally you don't drop anything...but yea.
