I can adjust my cooler a bit on either side, isn't that normal? I’m not sure if it’s set incorrectly, but my CPU reaches up to 70°C max. Just making sure everything is okay.

The choice of cooler relies on the specific mounting hardware used.

It seems like you're describing something related to a dark, sleek rocket design. Let me know if you'd like help refining or expanding on that idea!

It’s okay if the cooler can turn around as long as it’s applying pressure properly. Just avoid pressing it once the paste sets—wait at least a few days before doing so to prevent cracks and temperature spikes. As long as the load temperatures stay within range, you’re safe.

The cooler design allows room for rotation in both directions, which is expected. It shouldn't be overly simple.
