Quick question about the hyper 212 evo. So i'm completely new to this whole after market cooler thing i've always used stocked. anyways just ordered my hyper 212 evo by cooler master and am very excited. but When I look at my mother board their is already a back plate on the back of the motherboard and there's already something screwed into my mobo where I would install the 212 bracket to the board. just a little skeptical I don't want to jump into and screw something up as this is my first build and is my baby :)

anyways heres a pic of the mobo

Yea I thought that at first too because the front screws near the cpu are what is holding up the plate. I got confused because I watched this guys video which was on a intel board which looks as if the motherboard back plate is permanently installed into board hence how he had no screws around his cpu socket.
