Never buy a cpu cooler that has the heat pipes in direct contact with the cpu
Buy one with a solid bloc
Reason:
-you will spend a lot on thermal pate in time :2-3 years because there is a bigger gap to fill
-the surface might not be perfect any bends in the heat pipes at the surface with the cpu and cooling efficiency will go down
