Hey all,
Just looking to see what the forum thinks about installing a CPU cooler with a few scratches / gouges onto a new CPU.
Recently upgraded, and the CPU cooler I'm looking to install has ~1mm gouges on the heat spreader (where the edge of the CPU would sit) that is through to the copper.
Cooler 1
Cooler 2
Cooler 3
Could this do damage to the CPU IHS if I went ahead fitted ?
I realize that I maybe being a little paranoid, but google seems to be returning mixed results hence the caution.
TIA.
