Heatsink question

[thescreensavers]

can a heat sink put to much pressure on the CPU die for the thermal interface to ware off or dissaper. b/c I put on past and 2 hours later half the die does not have past.

Are you sure that the other half of the goop isn't on the heatsink itself. Anyhoo, the base of the heatsink can be uneven. Or you could have mounted it with uneven pressue. You seldom get more with a heatsink that weighs more than 250 Grams except lighter in the wallet.
