Corsair H100i AMD CPU socket adapter. AM3 & AM4 *use Intel hardware for mounting (thumb-nuts, standoffs and screws)
28OCT18- Updated the design to allow for the Corsair Link cable to be plugged into the pump...my earlier revision did not have the "cut out" needed to fit the cable.
I needed an AMD (AM3) adapter for my buddies Corsair Hydo H100i to fit the loaner motherboard/CPU in his system as his Z170 mobo is being RMA'd for repair/replacement and I didn't have any extra AMD brackets for the Corsair Hydro Series AIO (and obviously his setup uses LGA1151 adapter/hardware)
A 4-corner mounting system was chosen over the factory AMD dual-center clamp which should improve thermals by a couple degrees.
Ended up modeling both AM3 & AM4 socket adapters and I think AM2 has the same bolt pattern as AM3 but I cannot confirm that at the time of publishing.
Here is the Corsair Hydro Series H100i CPU cooler linked below. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Liquid-Cooling/Dual-Radiator-Liquid-Coolers/Hydro-Series%E2%84%A2-H100i-Extreme-Performance-CPU-Cooler/p/CW-9060009-WW
