am4 bracket problem ????

so 3-4 months ago i bought corsair h100i v2 then ryzen came and i wanted to build ryzen pc then i went to buy parts i bought all the parts then i understood that ryzen need am4 bracket so i searched for it on google the only place i could find it was corsair.com that to it was free so i was exited but it was not available in my country [INDIA] so i thought buying offline from shop i might get it but they said there is nothing like this in the market so in went on amazon they had it but out of stock and also very expensive .

use the metal back plate on the motherboard to align the holes.
