How should the Socket A thermosistor sit?

I just replaced a dead KT7A-RAID, and when I first went to slip the chip into the slot, it wouldn't sit evenly. After pulling the chip off, I noticed that the thermosistor was sticking WAY up and preventing the chip from lying flat.

So, I pushed it down to a level where I thought it would be sitting just under, but not touching the bottom of the chip, but I have no idea if I pushed it down too far. I didn't think that touching the chip was such a good idea, but I honestly have no idea.

Any thoughts out there?
 
Mine touches, I have it so I have to press my chip down slightly to put it on. Don't know if thats a good way or bad, but it sure changed my temp measurements.
