I don't follow this at all. All thermal illustrations and IHS tests I have seen show heat transferring pretty much right through the center of the IHS with heat spread slowing way down as it reaches the outer edges. The efficiency of the cooler will dictate how much heat makes it to the edges of the IHS but any good water block should pretty much keep it off the edges.
