they are good assurance they will go onto the core themselves meaning you will cook the cpu, or they will slide onto a trace cooking the cpu, or they will lessen the pressure so you will get worse temps, or they won't be thick enough so you will have a false sense of security, or they can be too thick so your cpu doesn't contact the heatsink at all.
they are training wheels for the 5 year old Kylie's, and Tom's of this world, get rid of them all
