NEED HELP WITH CPU FAN!

memonahad

I really need help with my cpu fan I just bought. I tried to install it, but the back plate didn't fit into my motherboard. Is there any way to install it using the back plate already on my motherboard. How do I know if its even compatible with my motherboard. Thank you in advance for your help. 

 

here is my pc build

The bracket you are trying to use is for Intel mobos. Use AMD bracket instead. And please read those instructions.
