So my cooler bracket of my h100i v2 cant be tightened fully.
As you can see the gap with the screw fully on is bigger than the thickness of my motherboard.

Is this normal or should it be tight to my motherboard

Solution
There might be washers in the mounting kit somewhere. Certainly a problem that I have experienced with Corsair coolers before.

Washers would go on the back of the motherboard to increase clamping pressure.
