So I got this cooler for my Ryzen build and apparently the new bracket won't ship till a couple weeks so this is just to inform also a quick question. Thinking about just installing the stock color for now.. or should I return the H80i and try to find something that does fit. If any one has any information regarding this issue please let me know..

contact corsair and ask them for the brackets.

H100i/H80i v1 works with Ryzen with the AM3 bracket as it uses the same mounting

H100i/H80i v2 doesn't work with Ryzen as it uses a different AM3 bracket and just doesn't work, BUT you can get a Ryzen mounting kit from Corsair for a couple bucks shipping. Contact them.

idk

Yes I will be contacting them in the morning. Would the stock cooler be ok for now? Just so I can get the system going

Just use the stock cooler until the bracket ships.

 

the stock cooler is quite good from what I've seen (way better than intel's 3 inch punisher)

Corsair are having trouble delivering their bracket to people who paid for it.

Asking won't do you any good.

Brackets are actually on their way to our hubs, so it might take two weeks before they ship out to those who pre-ordered them. 

 

And just to clarify, the AM4 bracket is free if you use the coupon code that we provided on our website
