I'm pulling my hair out over here.
I started a build today with the Ryzen 5 2400g and a MSI B350 Tomahawk motherboard. The attachment of the Wraith Spire cooler was weird. I had to apply very much pressure and then the screws started making a really weird sound (possibly from the springs) when I turned them. It did not attach easily and I got a little worried because I thought maybe it was too tight and the sound of the screws creaking really scared me.
I started it up with no problem but I thought the fan sounded too loud and I was worried about the amount of pressure. I took the cooler off with GREAT difficulty and now I cannot reattach it. The screws will turn but they will NOT descend or retract.
Additionally the pre-applied thermal paste (it was already on the stock cooler, I did not apply) is spilling over the side a little bit and I'm worried about that.
What do I do? The MSI Tomahawk does not have a back plate. Why are the screws making this weird sound and refusing to descend? Please help and tell me what to do.
