Dropped the brackets on a B350 motherboard and then upgraded to a Ryzen 7 3900? Yes it works.

Originally bought a Ryzen 5 processor with a screw fan. Then I upgraded to Ryzen 7 with a clip fan. I threw away my clamp mounts (I don't need them, do I?). Bought, screwed the two clamp mounts from this kit to the back of my motherboard after a previous install, and done. The included mounting holes on the back panel don't go all the way through my motherboard (like the standard one), but the mounting holes go up far enough that the back panel doesn't move and would work with a standard screw fan.

Pros
