FAQ: Is it a problem that the CPU heatspreader is not covered completely by the heatsinkbase on LGA2011-3?
No. Depending on the orientation of the cooler, 1-2mm at the outer edge of the heatspreader may not be covered by the heatsink base. As the heat is concentrated at the center of the CPU
and the outermost parts are irrelevant for heat-transfer, this is no problem at all.
