Hi guys,
I got this second hand NOCTUA NP-U12P SE2 heatsink and unfortunately the CPU pad is kinda "bent" or rather not aligned. I tried to gently rotate it back, but it is stuck alright. Have anything like this ever happen to any of you?
Should I leave it as is or try more to level it?
Do you think it will somehow impact the performance?
Any suggestions are welcome.
Cheers

Edit 2: Thanks everyone for your comments. The consensus is this thing is trashed. In the end I ended up buying a new one. Mostly because of your comments and definitely because the damn thing is missing the right adapters and can't be attached to my motherboard xD
I get you. I actually tried to rock it on a table yesterday and it seemed to not rock at all. But given the incompatibility with the motherboard I bought a new one just to be perfectly safe.
