CPU socket replacement

Select your language

In the case of LGA (Land Grid Array) motherboards, the processor contacts are located directly in the motherboard socket. On modern motherboards, these sockets typically feature over 1,000 pins. A single careless moment—whether removing or installing the CPU, or even just removing the protective socket cover—can easily damage the socket. This can result in bent, broken, or short-circuited pins, which may cause electrical failures and potentially destroy the processor itself.

We specialize in repairing these damages, performing a complete CPU socket replacement when necessary. Using specialized tools, machinery, and precision equipment, we remove the damaged factory socket and replace it with a brand-new, flawless one.

Important: If damage has occurred to the socket, please disconnect the motherboard from all power sources immediately. After unplugging the power, remove the BIOS battery as well. Do not attempt to power on the motherboard, as the short circuit could destroy other components or controllers on a board that might otherwise still be salvageable.

After the CPU socket replacement, every motherboard undergoes a rigorous inspection and testing process. We use specialized instruments and tools for this check, and the motherboard is only powered on for functional testing once all pre-checks are confirmed successful.

Warranty Policy: We provide a warranty exclusively for the work we perform, which in this case is the socket replacement.

Pricing Policy: Our socket replacement services are provided at fixed rates. Therefore, the service fee must be paid regardless of whether the motherboard becomes fully functional or only partially operational after the repair. The time, energy, and material costs remain the same regardless of the final outcome. This is why it is critical that once damage occurs, you do not attempt to power on, start, or DIY-repair the board, as doing so significantly reduces the chances of full functionality following a professional replacement.
