Hi,
I plan to upgrade my current cpu and motherboard to Ryzen 5 3600x with b450 Steel Legend. I already have an AIO cooler but since the previous motherboard and cpu is for intel, I need to find AM4 bracket for the cooler. The AIO is Asus Ryuo. I searched online for AM4 brackets and as far as I can tell they all look about same but I'm afraid I might miss something important. So my question is: would it be fine if I brought an AM4 bracket from corsair or NZXT and would it be compatible with the motherboard I plan to buy.

Thank you in advance.

No, you need AM4 mounting kit from Asus. It needs to fit both AM4 and Ryuo.
