Kraken Z73 backplate moving

[Amer]

Currently building my pc and ran into an issue where the backplate for the kraken is moving on my LGA 1700 motherboard even when screwed in is this normal?

I was told 115x mounting brackets should be fine but it’s moving a bit I haven’t installed the cooler yet so I don’t know if the cooling will be affected by it or not ;( help!!

With mounting pressure it should be pretty solid, and not move much at all.

 

Does the block move?
