The R1 is definitely compatible with lga1151, so that's a bit odd. Are you sure it's facing the right way? The front fan should be facing the front of the case. Also check you're not using the AM4 mounting kit, and if you aren't double check everything to make sure it's alrighed properly.

I'm keeping everything else the way it was for anyone who might check out my answers in future, but I won't be using LTT.

You might need to use some force. Mounting can be difficult as cooler needs to be tight. Push down the corner you are trying to screw.

The first time I put mine on I put the little bars on that you screw the actual cooler into upside down. Made it impossible to tighten it down. Make sure those are installed correctly or you'll never get the cooler mounted.
