the wild idea first, chemically grow a layer of silver over the cpu to fill all the irregularities, then lap it until is is flat as possible. then dont bother with thermal paste. if the mounting is done properly the 2 surfaces should have decent contact. also use some standoff form the mobo so that the block sits better of the cpu and dont bother with springs on the mounting.
