Was under the impression a heatsink will come with brackets to be able to fit onto all motherboards.
But it doesn't seem to be the case. My heatsink does not fit on to my motherboard in anyway.
My motherboard is MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX Motherboard

My heatsink is ARCTIC Freezer 12

Please advice. Got a bit itchy and already build the system using the stock cooler for now. Guess gonna be a nightmare to make this heatsink swap but wanna do it asap.

- What do I need to purchase to be able to install this heatsink on my motherboard?
- This motherboard seem to only have a standard 4 holes. Nothing extra to accommodate different sizes.
