Definately not what a Wraith Prism should look like

I think these images more or less speak for themselves. ? (hint: look at heatsink surface on the left side of the photo)

 

QC messed up badly with this one.

 

Came with a 3700X. How I somehow missed it before installing the cpu I will never understand ?  No wonder my temperatures were all over the place

Well, wasn't really going to use it any longer anyway.

The issue that remains is if this could have damaged my cpu somehow. I am investigating a problem right now (no post, dram led solid) but doubt this could really be the culprit. If the cpu had overheated I would expect it to do thermal shutdown. More likely a dead mobo.
