The heat sink has Thermal Interface Material (TIM) located on the bottom of it. Use

posts surrounding the processor.
2. Loosely screw in the captive screws on the heat sink corners in a diagonal manner.
Do no fully tighten one screw before tightening another.
3. Gradually and equally tighten each captive screw until each is firmly tightened.
