Works well but mounting hardware could be improved

This CPU cooler works as expected but the installation took forever because for some reason the spring loaded screws that put pressure on the CPU were not properly tightened , as it seemed to take a lot of time, more effort than I normally use. Maybe I just caught a badly threaded screw, but it still works as intended so I can't complain too much. Overall this cooler works well, I'm just not sure if the max cooling capacity is 230W TDP as my Ryzen 5 3600 runs at around 60C when gaming and it's only a 65W TPD chip, however, this could be due to an installation problem, but in any case I'm happy with the result.
