CPU Liquid Cooler screws won't fit in motherboard

[thecrazyboy858]

I recently got a liquid cooler to replace my air cooler, the liquid cooler was a UpHere AIO Liquid Cooler

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01H1V4Z88/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_tEsyAb3DEYR53

and my motherboard is a LGA1366 Lenovo Thinkstation S20 71Y8820

so my trouble with the cooler is the installation of the bracket on the back of the motherboard,
the liquid cooler, the bracket is good it's just the screws i'm supposed to screw in is too big,

is there any way to replace the screws or something? i'd really appreciate any help or advice given

There should be screws and a bracket that came with it listed as LGA1366. Read the manual. Considering that cooler is only listed on amazon, sounds pretty sketchy.

The manual lists part 7 which is the screw that doesn't fit

Taking a closer look at the board, it doesn't look like LGA1366 as the screw does not match up. Every 1366 board I see online has holes around the socket, not on the back plate for the CPU retention lever.

Is that a server motherboard you're using? If the holes are threaded then it needs a specific cooler.

Ahhh that's why, we'll do you know any liquid coolers that can work on a server motherboard or does it have to be an air cooler?

Is there a reason you want a watercooler? You won't be able to overclock it anyways on that board. A stock intel air cooler will be more than enough.

there's a software that i've used before which is called clockgen which i can software overclock the cpu with
plus even if i couldn't overclock it with that, a water cooler would be quieter then a air cooler which is my preferred option
