Note que, por falta de contexto, o shim pode ser:
shim
<jargon, memory management> A small piece of data inserted in order to achieve a desired memory alignment or other addressing property.
Nesse caso, a melhor tradução é \"SHIM DO PROCESSADOR\".

Explanation:
This also has some photos.
Actually, most shims are made of copper.

(note that copper is mispelled in the second link as 'cooper')

After looking around, it seems that \'copper shim\' is most commonly used.

Indeed, from what I can see, \'copper shim\' is far more common in English as well, though \'processor shim\' is used by a handful. A Google search shows two clear images of what it is. (It is essentially a guard to prevent the heatsink from heating up the processor).

...just to update, I think the safest bet of all is simply \'shim.\' While almost always made of copper, there are other types of shims for processors made of other material. (see http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/copshimfortb.html)
Not to waste too much time on this issue, but I think it is important to be conscious of whether or not terms are actually used in a given field. The other answers are good as descriptors, but I think they also present good examples of literal translations of a technical term that are not widely used.
good luck :)
