Does anyone know if I should remove or keep the mounting brackets on the Motherboard if I were to install AMD wraith spire?

I'm pretty sure you just use the mounting bracket that comes with the wraith spire cooler.

I'd recommend carefully reading the instructions that came with it, but I found a video that might help you.  I don't know if that's the same CPU that you got, but it should be the same heatsink with the same installation method.

 

Edit: If you mean the bracket on the backside of the motherboard, yes that stays on there.  If you mean the two plastic pieces on the frontside of the motherboard, I think those are used with the Wraith Prism heatsink so you remove those.
