"just grab the retro kit" Sadly money isnt just available for me to do those things, I just spent $181 on the CORSAIR - iCUE H150i ELITE CAPELLIX CPU Cooler - Black, because reviews said it came with the bracket. I just built an entire new pc, 13700K, 32GB ddr5 ram, corsair 850w psu 1tbm.2nve and a rtx 3080 12gb ftw ultra with a nice P500a case. and a Z690 Aroua Elite AX mother board and an ultrawide monitor.
What's another $15 bucks right? Well I had ot sell off my old monitor, old cpu and my vr headset to completely redo my build and I will be enjoying Ramon noodles this month, as I blew my budget and then some, so I quite literally cant afford that bracket, which is included with purchase for some people untl next year. Or I have to return this one and get one that comes with it.
