So I recently upgraded my computer and got a Core i5-11400F with a ASUS TUF B560M MOBO. Initially when I set it up, it ran fine and booted into Windows but it was instantly overheating with the stock Intel cooler it came with. I decided to use my Hyper 212 BE Cooler and see if that would improve things however when I installed it the motherboard wouldn't get power. After hours of troubleshooting and reinstalling the stock cooler and then the Hyper 212 again and again I came to the conclusion that there was a short when I screw the heatsink screws all the way in. I was finally able to get it running by loosening the screws about halfway and it runs fine.
The tempatures are acceptable now with the Hyper 212 installed but I still feel like it shouldn't be left halfway screwed in. I'm trying to figure out what could be causing the short when the bolts are screwed all the way in and the only thing I can think of is there bolts are making contact with the standoffs and shorting because there's no washers there or anything. The cooler worked fine in my other motherboard (AM3+) but this one has a weird shorting issue.
Has anyone run into this issue before or have any clue as how to fix this?
