Here's the thing. I had used stock AMD cooler, since I bought Ryzen 3 2200G, but I have plans to upgrade to Ryzen 5 2600 and it didn't come with the cooler (used, from "craiglist" like site in my country). I got an AIO for it, but it came with AMD stock mounting bracket (the pre-applied to motherboard mounting) and I test it to my 2200G. The AIO mounting brackets won't get click to motherboad brackets and I lift it slightly to get better left-side first to click. I didn't notice the CPU was stuck to thermal paste and I slightly twisted and try again.Well, more than ten pins got bent and motherboard socket got loose, I tried to bent the pins back, but broke one of the pins. Now it's dead 2200G and slightly usable motherboard.
Back to graphite pad. Is it good idea to use one for Ryzen 5 2600 with AIO cooler?
