Hey all, first time builder, just got my parts and have starting putting things together. My issue is that the backplate nuts of the hyper 212+ cooler that I have touches the mobo tray of my Haf 922 case. The motherboard I'm using is an MSI P67A G43 (LGA 1155). I've tried placing the backplate vertically (which is the way it seems like its supposed to go) and horizontally (which gives me the least interference), and in both configurations I get the same problem.
1. Does it matter which direction (vert or horiz) I assemble the backplate if both configurations fit the holes?
2. Does anyone have any solutions or suggestions? I was going to place the backplate horizontally, and then try to bend back part of the case with some pliers but Im hoping there's a better way.
