Okay disassembled and backplate looked good. There is a bar on the back for the NB but I don't think it is interfering with anything:


I noticed that the WB had crappy contact with the CPU:


I cleaned the wb and rotated and then I noticed this:

And that was the part of the wb that wasn't touching the CPU!!!


So I am thinking of putting the Noctua NH-D14 on this board and trying the wb on my EVGA X58 mb. Man this sucks though! I am going to send pics to Koolance as their site states (visual only):
