Let me give some help.

Have a better title (yeah to late now) that describes the actual problem.
Telling you in a hurry matters nothing to anyone but you.
Also DO NOT change the regular font, its readable enough.

 

Also have proper formatting, readable sentences that do not stretch the whole screen. (lots of PC users here!)

Will make it so you get a lot better answers then this. 😉

When i ask for more specs, don't expect me to know the answer!
I'm just helping YOU to help YOURSELF!
(The more info you give the easier it is for others to help you out!)

Not willing to capitulate to the ignorance of the masses!

I echo the earlier remarks about better thread titles.

 

If you lost the AMD mounting hardware then you lost it. Do you imagine someone will post magic worlds that make it reappear? You could possibly jury-rig a mounting with zip ties or something but I wouldn't recommend it. Contact Cooler Master and see if they'll send you replacement brackets. In the meantime, use the stock Wraith cooler for the 3600. Not sure what else you expected to hear. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

Or you can lay your pc flat and shove your cooler ontop of the cpu without mounting it

 

I am actually doing this and idk where my mounting pins have gone xD

 

And the temps are decent though be careful not to knock it off the cpu on accident
