Did you install your cooler properly? The push pin should be pushed properly and sealed properly. Thermal paste should not be too much.

can i remove it and install again without changing thermal paste. i just recently applied it. same with cooler

So you put a thermal paste both on your CPU cooler and cpu? Did you lock it tight? I think you only need to put a small pea on your cpu and you're done.
