I am looking to add a CoolerMaster Liquid ML240L V2 RGB cooler and I need the AM4 retention brackets.  The standoffs on the motherboard are 3 inches apart and when I search Amazon/Ebay/Newegg, they only seem to have 2.6 inch brackets.  Does anyone know where to get the 3 inch brackets?  Thanks

Hi @Pathach5150 

 

Can't say for sure I but thought HP was using Intel backplate and brackets around the CPU socket. AMD spacing is a rectangle. Intel spacing is square.

 

The Intel backplate and brackets worked on many HP AMD AM4 MBs.

Hi

 

Check this Video for additional information. Watch the entire video but check at around 12:00 minutes for CPU heatsink removal/replacement on a HP 25L AM4 MB. The 25L and 30L PCs are very similar.

 

The YouTuber will point out HP is using Intel CPU socket backplate spacing on this AM4 MB.
