AM4 socket plastic issue - Help! in Desktops ·
So, I’ve got an AM-compatible part for this cooler here View on imgur

I’m still missing the backplate and that plastic piece with the two prongs that attaches to the front View on imgur

I'm based out of San Francisco. If anyone happens to have a spare lying around or doesn't need it, I'd be more than happy to pay for shipping and the part itself if you're willing to send it my way 🙂

So, there’s this option available and I’m curious to get your take on it. I want to see if my logic holds up. My motherboard has mounting holes for both AM3 and AM4 brackets. From what I’ve gathered, the AM2 and AM3 brackets are actually identical, and I actually found a guy nearby who was selling an AM2 kit complete with the backplate

Also, looking at the cooler itself, that part seems compatible with all the AM series sockets. In theory, should this work? 🤔

It doesn't just have the top side with those two little holes that catch onto the middle clips to tighten things up. For Intel, you get the entire assembly including the backplate. -.-

So, I checked in with a couple of repair shops. In one of them, the tech told me straight up, just Intel hahaha

So, I was putting together a PC recently and picked up a used motherboard. It came with its own cooler, but I already have my own setup I want to use—specifically an ml240l. The problem is, I'm missing the mounting bracket that originally comes with the board. I can't find it anywhere locally, and the only option seems to be hunting through eBay. Does anyone know if there's a way to just buy this part here in the States?
