AM4 motherboard backplate/bracket replacement

[GoldenStars]

I kind of broke my motherboard backplate (the one that's supposed to hold the cpu cooler in place) and I'm wondering where you can get a replacement. I've checked out some on shoppee and some of the reviews say that the backplate isn't compatible with the amd stock wraith spire cooler since the screw holes don't protrude out of the motherboard high enough. So I'm wondering how to make sure if the screw holes are high enough for the stock cooler to be screwed in. If anyone knows where I can get one for cheap or has a spare backplate please comment or pm me. If not no choice I guess I will have to purchase a 3rd party cooler

Just buy from another seller with positive reviews ?

I'm curious as to how you broke it, seeing the backplate is made of metal.

Hahaha yes I was wondering too. Most mobo stock backplate is quite solid, even better than 3rd party cooler plates..

OK, there are basically 2 types of back plate, plastic and metal. What you need is the metal one like the one below.

This type will not work
