i spread the TIM by hand, so if it was touching it would have TIM on it.
the IHS of my e8200 is flat, many other coolers have perfectly good contact to this chip, the TRU90 is the only one that doesnt.
the TRU90 has a large buldge in the center, wobbles like a weeble, and can spin on a flat counter like a top.
mounted with the washer mod, spring bolts were very tight, i could not twist the cooler by hand.
and i checked it twice to be sure.
