Cannot fit liquid cooling

[vixtrublu11]

Hello,

I have managed to get to the stage of fitting my cpu, I have an MSI z370a pro mother board i7 8700k cpu and ml240l rgb cooler master liquid cooling system.

My issue is when I have the bracket on the back of the case and then line the tank up with the screws I can only allign half of it. The other half is too high to reach the other screws as if the bracket were wonky. However when out of the case it drops onto the screws fine. I am not sure why this is happening but it’s very frustrating. This is my first build and it was all going so well until this bit. Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated

You seem to be describing a case not large enough for the fluid reservoir used for the cooler in question....? (Or is it the pump that can't be locked down? Specific brackets/mounts for socket 1151 vs. 2011/2066, etc...

Perhaps a photo or two of your ...dilemma

Hey ! I was a complete numb nuts and had one of the brackets on the wrong way. The step is so low profile I didn’t even notice it but it was the bracket that wouldn’t lock down.

Thanks so much for your reply though, have a great weekend
