Very bad contact with AIO?

I've never seen this before. I got a Deepcool Captain thing, just a 120mm AIO that was on sale and came with some RGB strips. I had it on my 4770k which is delid/relid with liquid metal and my temps were still getting into the 80's during gaming.

Took it off to swap for my trusty Noctua NH-U12S - which the temps now max out around 55C - and this is what I see after having it cranked down as far as it would go.

Has anyone seen this before? The Noctua gets fine contact. Never had this issue with any other cooler.
