Hello. I've just recently started building my first computer and halfway through I've run into a wall. The AMD mounting screws/standoffs that came with my Corsair h105 don't fit through the holes of my MSI Carbon Pro x370 therefore I can't mount my cooler. This is troubling me since the manual depicts the standoffs fitting in perfectly. Do I need to purchase new screws that it with the cooler and mobo or do I neee to purchase a new cooler altogether? Thanks
