Hey, I am posting today to see of anyone has saw this issue before today. So my intel i9 13900k was very unstable so I removed it today for an inspection.

It looked fine after the thermal pate was cleaned away, not hardened used artic mx6 paste.

After closer inspection on the underside of the cpu, I noticed that the cpu contact pads seem to be sunk in or some strange pattern on them. I have never saw anything like this to this day and I want to know if anyone else has had experience with this?

Thankyou in advance btw.
