Also make sure that the heat sink is completely flat against _only_ the
CPU chip. In some installations, if you're not careful, the edge of the
heat sink can rest along the slightly raised edge of the CPU _socket_ or
the installation _arm_ of the CPU socket. This will prevent full heat
sink contact with the CPU chip.

Another thing to do is to sand the heat sink flat before installing.
