    Personally I think that heatsink's about to fall off. I'd take it off, clean off all the AS5 on there, and reapply some new paste (which costs a few quid) and resecure it.

    Is all that really necessary? The heatsink doesn't look dislodged or anything... and you know me, I'll end up seriously breaking something.
