I installed my Ryzen 5 3600 a few weeks ago and spent about an hour doing it. I faced a problem where the backplate would keep detaching each time I flipped the PC to install the heatsink. I had to use some tape to hold it in place until it was secure. Anyone else experience similar issues with back plates?

I’ll place the board partially on and partially off a surface like a table or box. This way I can keep one hand on the backplate while securing the cooler at the top firmly in position.
