Trying to install upgraded hardware and hitting major road blocks
Components:
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600X
MoBo: Asus Prime B350-Plus
Case: Cooler Master HAF XB EVO (horizontal cube)
AIO Coolers on hand:
Cooler Master ML Lite 120
Cooler Master ML240L

It looks like the ML240L radiator will NOT mount anywhere in my case
The 120 mounts BUT i cannot make the bracket fit the motherboard....i am lost in the sauce here....i thought maybe i had lost some pieces to the 120 so i contacted Master Cooler for an accessory kit replacement and its on backorder for the foreseeable future.....

Is there something im missing? Some trick to getting the bracket to fit to the mobo that i obv dont know?

not sure about those coolers but for my AIO its a Ryzen compatible one and yea didn't fit on my case either.. SO I modified the case and its attached to the outside on the back. :)

IF you are handy with a few tools I would just make the case fit the cooler :)
