This is fine, and expected of the stock heatsink.
I have a 212 Evo in the box, but was told it isn't necessary unless I'm OC'ing.
I would have put it on regardless but it would mean i had to remove the side panel fan on my case (rosewill blackhawk).
Do you agree that I don't necessarily need it, and if you think I do need it, am I losing too much case cooling by removing that side panel fan?
Sorry for the question spam...my first build and I'm being protective!
