One of the capacitors in my new motherboard is slightly bent. It probably happened at the beginning, I just noticed it now! !!! I've attached a picture below. I don't think the angle is clear in the image, but it's definitely there!!! What are your thoughts on this?

They’re positioned on slim, flexible wires and usually have a slight bend in one direction.

It's fine. It doesn't have to be straight to work. it's also probably just a visual trick, the sleeve on the capacitor is not perfectly cut (there's more sleeve on one side vs the other side)

Thanks! It seems slightly skewed when viewed from above, but that’s okay—just as you mentioned, it’s fine. Thanks again!
