Didn't think pressure would be an issue but I guess these are delicate boards. It makes sense, I tried a scenario where I pushed on the back of the board with the heat sink on and sure enough same thing would happen. I've got some pads coming and I'm going to try to make my own IBM like heat sink to make this work.The thermal pads might have some cushion to them to prevent having too much pressure on the processor, or the particular paste you have may be slightly conductive?
Thanks cheese for the pressure idea
