A few questions I need to ask.

#1. What motherboard monitor you are using?
#2. Was the heatsink used before? If yes, did you clean the base properly, preferably lapped to mirror finish and cleaned with isopropyl alcohol/zippo fluid/articlean/googone?
#3. Has the base plastic retention bracket for the heatsink been mounted down firmly with the screws provided?
#4. Have you made sure mounting was done properly with a small drop of AS5 on the IHs and the retention clip inserted evenly at the side which does not have the release mechanism?
#5. Was the proc used before? If yes, did you clean the IHS properly with the abovementioned fluids?

Those 5 questions will lead to a proper answer from me

Here's a few suggestions which one of it will work (If it doesn't we're in for a long debugging session)

#1. Try using MBM5 with the correct config files found over at DFI-street (Yes they do work across the board for nF3/4)

#2. Clean again this time making sure there's no trace left using alcohol (a bit of trace left is enough)

#3. Reapply thermal paste properly
