proper mating might require sanding

This kit is solidly built and created a good frame on my motherboard. However, I tested the cooling under cpu stress and it was barely working. I had to reseat the cooler 4 times and use a ton of thermal paste, and screw this in so tight that the mounting screws started threading. Bottom line is you might want to sand down the plastic risers a half millimiter in order to give you better contact with the cpu. Having to use so much thermal paste to ge the cooler to work within acceptable ranges means my cooler is not snug enough to cpu. Sadly, my motherboard is mounted now and I dont want to take it out to sand down the risers. I''ll just have to live with a .4ghz overclock.
