The heat sink has Thermal Interface Material (TIM) on the bottom.
Be careful not to damage this material when you remove the heat
sink from the processor.
If removing the heat sink also pulls the processor out of the processor
socket, the processor could be damaged. Check the pins on the
processor to make sure they are not bent or damaged.
