I recently bought the ASrock Z77 extreme4 to go with my new intel i5 3570k. The only problem is, the screws don't match the holes that go with the new motherboard. The backplate for the cooler is in more of a rectangle shape, while the holes for the cooler on the motherboard are set in a square shape. Do I need to buy a new backplate for my cooler, or are there other options?
 
I guess that is my issue. I am not sure if I still have the Intel one around. Is it possible to buy a replacement?
