Default Shuriken incompatible on ASRock A75 Pro4-M ?

Hi,

I recently bought Scythe Shuriken Rev.B to mount on an A8-3850 on the ASRock A75 Pro4-M motherboard, but it doesn't fit. The clips that are supposed to lock with the retention bracket seem too short. When a clip in one of the sides are locked, its impossible to lock the other. Its seems to be an incompatibility with the bracket(which is odd) or am I doing something wrong here? It seems fairly straight forward. The stock cooler fits just fine.

Hello Skamronn,
Shuriken Rev.B should fit all AMD socket.

Most people are just too careful. Last time I installed Big Shuriken on AM2 I also noticed that it is quite a tight fit and that you have to use some force to close the second side of the clip but it definitely works.

As the basic system of AMD retention modules didn't change this should also apply for the newest sockets.
