I contacted them this morning and they said there will be no stock till late January. I wish I was good with power tools as there doesn't look to be much difference between the am3 mount

It's only a couple millimeters off:

The taller one is AM3.

But yeah, it's a shame AMD changed the mounting plate..

hi, i have bought a cooler master liquid pro series 240mm and didn't realize it wasn't comparable with AM4 out of the box. the euro cooler master store is out of stock and as i live in the UK i cant order from the cooler master us store. amazon hasn't got any and nor does eBay. i ordered one of a site called nexus tech but they appear to fave ripped me off.

does anyone have any suggestions

 

thank you

Try to contact Coolermaster (I believe their European head office is located in the Netherlands) and ask if they have anything and otherwise you could try to contact some of the bigger retailers, but I doubt they have anything if CM doesn't have anything.

Damn, that's a shame you didn't pick a non-pro model that comes WITH the upgrade kit. Just bought a masterliquid 240 lite to test, only £43 at box.co.uk with free delivery.

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.

I've got an older stock Cryorig H7 so it doesn't have the AM4 plate either. You're probably going to be left waiting for EU Cooler Master to get them in stock.

Unless you could find some way to 3D print a bracket.
