Works fine on my X570 MSI Gaming Pro Carbon motherboard. It would be nice if they connected the retaining brackets to the backplate for those who need them.

It says there is a 'plastic layer' that you shouldn't remove. Well, there's a layer of paper you can peel off, and anyway - I'm not risking my motherboard using this thing. I'm looking for another one I can get.

Exactly what it says on the tin. I couldn't find any Finding backplates for AM4 sockets that just had unthreaded holes in the corners so I bought this type and just used a metal drill bit to drill out the threads it actually ended up drilling out all the nuts from the corner but my screws with it Washers worked fine anyway PC Eventually you'll short something Good luck!
