Alright sooooo I've done some research and all and I want to upgrade my cpu cooler to a water type sealed cooler. However when I installed my new CPU a few weeks ago I noticed that the little clamps that came with the new CPU cooler didn't have a place to clamp to.... Kinda weird I thought so I put the stock cooler back on. I have an amd a8-3870k cpu btw. I'm wondering if I go and get a corsair h100i will it have anywhere to clamp to or does it need clamps? All the videos and things I've found say it needs clamps so I guess it must be a compatibility thing? Any help appreciated!

Hey sorry for the late reply! Looooong day at work. But the amd a8 processor I bought came with a heat sink eat. However the clamps that it came with to hold it down on the CPU have nowhere to clamp to! And I saw some videos and whatnot of a cooler being "clamped" down as well. Maybe I'm just not seeing where the clamps go or?
