so the transfer of heat from the cpu to the heatsink is 100% even. If not the imperfections in smoothness of the heatsink's surface doesn't allow for an efficient and even transfer of heat. This reduces the efficiency of the heatsink condiderably. But too much is not good either. Just enough to create a thin layer as direct heat transfer
