I have a Ryzen 7 with preapplied thermal paste. I set it on the CPU and for some reason the one side of the lockdown bracket was stuck and wouldn't reach to hook onto the bracket. I could get it on but it lifted the other side so I had to remove it (which it had a really strong bond), manipulated the latches then reset it on the CPU and was able to get it secured.
I'm thinking it should be okay but I just want to make sure because it's my first time installing a CPU and/or heatsink(cooler). I have some Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut that I bought before realizing the Wraith came preapplied with thermal paste, so should I leave it?
Either way i'll keep an eye on temps.
