So I just got my i7 4790k. When I was looking at it at an angle, I noticed that there was a "defect" on the heat spreader. (note: I've tried to clean it to make sure that it wasn't something stuck on there) I was wondering if this will be an issue for this CPU. It's my intent to overclock it and use a Corsair H80i to cool it. So again, I know that it won't be a huge issue and it'll still cool, but since some people on YouTube are crazy about skin oils.. I figured that this could be an issue for it's ability to transfer heat. Here are the pictures that I took. You can't see it in a couple of them however, its in the lower left corner of the heat spreader.
