Multi-million dollar Cheyenne supercomputer auction ends with $480,085 bid — buyer walked away with 8,064 Intel Xeon Broadwell CPUs, 313TB DDR4-2400 ECC RAM, and some water leaks

If it's the stock thermal paste that came pre-applied on the cooler it's fine. Many times companies, especially the manufacturer with a stock cooler, will have thermal paste applied in strips on the cooler so all you have to do is install it. Once it warms up the paste will soften and it will be fine.
