Hello everyone, I need to install my Corsair A115 Air Cooler for vertical airflow on my AM5 motherboard. There’s enough space in the case, but I’m unsure how to use the provided mounting parts. Can I really attach it in any orientation? I thought when I bought the MB/Cooler it was meant to be mounted in a specific way. The motherboard is an Asus B650M-Plus Wifi.

It seems the cooler must be installed flat. Unless the AM4/5 bracket can be turned 90 degrees here https://www.corsair.com/uk/en/explorer/d...-bracketsp

The bars resting on the pegs are notably short in length along their length and only align with the shorter side of the CPU, which is unfortunate. I questioned whether I was missing essential components or if there was a clear oversight.
