ok, I tried to snap some pictures, but they turned out like crap, so I tried to draw it out the best that I could (see attachment).

It looks to me like the HS misshaped the PCB... with it being in the center, then its force pulling each side of the PCB upwards. I'm surprised this hasn't happened to anyone else...


EDIT: I'm affraid to put this HS on my next card, to be honest. I'd rather out up with mediocre temps than make myself another $400+ paperweight.
