I'm looking for these plastic brackets to attach the CPU cooling fan, but the material has become brittle. One already broke. The spacing between holes on my brackets is 4.6 mm, whereas online options list 4.8 mm or more. The screws penetrate about 7 mm of plastic before exiting at the opposite bracket hole, and the hook sits 5 mm above that point. When installed correctly, the hooks are 12 mm from the motherboard surface. I've searched extensively but haven't found a compatible AMD CPU cooling fan bracket. The socket is an FM2B type.

It's an AM4 or AM5 cooling base. The specs are FM2+, confirmed by @RONOTHAN##

FM2+ supports a slightly modified hole position, making AM4/AM5 incompatible. Look for a FM2+ bracket instead. https://www.amazon.com/Bracket-Heatsink-...gQT=2&th=1

It's noted that the system mistakenly identified A320M as the model.

Thanks for your support! I used cyanoacrylate glue to join a few broken plastic pieces, and it worked well. Now it’s secure. I’ll get new brackets instead.
