Don't even bother with the brand name riveted tool its junk and bends easily rendering it useless. 

There was a guy on ebay making a CNCed one out of spring steel that was a really good one. There appear to be a billion Chinese copies of this now that also have an over molded handle. These should certainly be better than any of the riveted tools, but I cannot say for sure how much better. 

It took a bit of digging around in my email but this is the best pin extractor for minifit that I have used. The account I bought it from on ebay is long gone but I was able to find it again. No relation to the seller. Shakmods ATX / EPS / PCI-E PSU Connector Pin Removal Extractor Tool Spring Steel | eBay its branded Shakmods ATX / EPS / PCI-E Connector Pin Removal Extractor and is hard to bend (you can of course if you really force it but it can acutally take some abuse unlike the one made out of chewing gum wrapper from Molex)
