Anyone else like or dislike shims??? I always though they where garbage, but now with the busted core, and the fact that I can see the block move with any touch of the hoses (even with springs almost bottomed), I'm wondering before my next CPU.

Will the shim protect from movement once the water block is properly mounted??? (Say I bump a hose, or a hose is just trying to leverage the block up on edge)???
