How important are shims?

[loukey]

Hi, I bought a WBK38 to stick on my T-Bird, adn was wondering how important a copper shim was? Is it really that easy to crack the core. Also where would you guys buy the shims from? Thanks.

i'd like to know that too...

you don't need a shim. so long as you're careful, and don't do anything stupid(such as angle the heatsink) you'll be just fine

if you have a shimm , you might as well use it , if you dont , no problems just be extra carful! when you are installing your hsf!

or else you might cry... :frown:
