Hello,
I have a starter question. This is my fifteen build, and I have not run into this problem before.
I have a Gigabyte Z590 AORUS ULTRA MB. I purchased a CORSAIR H115i liquid cooler. The back plate will not fit the MB, it is to large.
Any ideas of what would fit the MB in the way of self contained liquid coolers?
 
Solution
It should fit, it's among the supported socket list:

Cooling Socket Support
Intel 1200, 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1366, 2011, 2066
AMD AM4*, AM3, AM2
*Purchase bracket CW-8960046 on CORSAIR webstore for compatiblity with AMD socket AM4

The z590 has a 1200 socket type.

Re-read the manual and double check you're using the right mounting bracket/installing it correctly.
