After receiving my brand new CPU I was excited, I was PISSED when I found out that my cooler may or may not fit in my case 
, considering a trusted member of this forum recommended it to me. I have a amd mother board, but it appears to not fit in my motherboard (MN27B-LA). I NEED this this to be fixed ASAP. My CPU is an AM3, and my motherboard is a AM2+. Please Help 
, here is a link to my cooler: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6835103075

Your motherboard should have an AMD bracket that fits where the 4 holes are around the cpu socket.

Well from what i know it's a bit of a pain lining up the clip and slider thing.
I really can't assist you much since i don't run any AMD platforms.
I heard the instructions left much to be desired.
Patience is the key.
Good luck
