    [SOLVED] I ordered an arctic freezer II on amazon, does it come with the 1700 bracket?

    On amazon they say "order 1700 kit seperately" but on the official manufacturers site they say "kit included". Is the mounting bracket a seperate thing that they would ship to amazon or would they lut it in the box with the cooler? Do i have any chance of getting the bracket anyway?
