notcrack Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I've just been upgrading my system and went to install my existing H60 to the new Sabertooth Z77. The problem is the rear mounting bracket won't fit over the CPU holder (metal thing the CPU goes into). Do I need to buy a new cooler or does Corsair sell replacement holding bracket?? Any advice would be very welcome before I catapult and buy a new cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 That back plate is keyed. Have you tried turning it upside down. It should fit with no other parts. It's fully compatible with that socket. If you could provide pics it would be a whole lot easier to help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notcrack Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 I'll have to pop the case open and attempt to re-install the cooler. I'll get some pics up tomorrow. Thanks for the response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notcrack Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 Excuse the delay in responding, but as I work from the computer I have to schedule down time lol. I've just got the comp back up and running and I have to say that I am probably the biggest idiot ever. The bracket fits perfectly. I just honestly didn't notice the cut outs to allow the CPU holder to fit. Thanks for the advice. It has saved me around £100 as I was literally moments away from buying a new 100i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
