Instead completely unscrew the clamp, rotate it and try again. I had to rotate mine when one of the corners wouldn't screw in, once I did that it fit perfectly.

Did that with both X-brackets, did it for each corner of the bracket, and when I did finally get it on, I didn't use much force at all, infact when I did get it installed after removing the cooler a few times trying to figure out what was wrong, the cooler went on fine, and in about 5 min, yet my card still fried, so I don't think it was user error.
