Asus crosshair VI hero back plate help

[PhantomCards]

Ok so i finally got all my pc parts on the mail! But i found out that my Nzxt Kraken X62 didnt come with a AM4 bracket.....I thought they were shipping them with the bracket. But i found out that the asus crosshair VI actually supports AM4 and AM3 back plates. Unfortunately there arnt many pc shops in my area....and nzxt will probably take weeks to send me a AM4 bracket. I learned that the corsair AM4 bracket is exactly the same ao i can actually order one from them. But i met a guy and he gave me this thing....is this a AM3 bracket and do you guys think this will work?

It will work but the black caps are in the wrong parts switch them over and that's the am3 allotment

Do you mean to move them like this? Of course id move the screws over too, just didn't do that for a quicker photo

That's actually what you'd do for Intel sockets. I should know because I had the same backplate for my Seidon 120V
