MSI K7T-Turbo CPU temp probe?

On the MSI K7T-Turbo, should the CPU temp probe be in contact with the back of the CPU? I believe that mine is, and as a result I may have temp indications that are too high. I remember bending it up when installing a CPU, maybe it was not touching before? This would definitely raise the indicated temp if it is not supposed to be touching.

OK thanks
