I am hoping someone can help. I have an Asus M3A87-EM Mobo, and I recently bought the Asus Triton 70 Cpu cooler.

The trouble I am having is actually setting up the mounting hardware. It seems that I may have the intel mounting hardware, even though this product is mainly meant for AMD. I can see no way of moving hardware around to fit.

Does anyone know where to get this hardware that I need?

According to NewEgg, ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835101014 ) the Asus Triton 70 is compatible with:

Intel Core2 Extreme/ Core2 Quad (Quad-Core)
Intel Core2 Duo/ Pentium Dual Core/ Pentium D (Dual-Core)
Intel Pentium 4 HT/Celeron D
AMD Athlon 64 FX
AMD Athlon 64 X2
AMD Athlon 64
AMD Sempron

Your board: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131324
It should fit.

If you don't have these mounting brackets (not sure which one you specifically need) you may be out of luck. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ImageG...20CPU%20Cooler

According to the pictures of it at newegg, you do have the bracket for AMD. click the last link on Deviance's post. Your bracket is the one at the bottom.

This is the AMD bracket. It works the same way as the bracket on a stock heatsink.

Thanks a lot for all of your help. I actually do not have that mentioned bracket. I may be out of luck then? In your experience, would contacting the manufacturer be of any help?
