...are all AM4 mounts the same?

[Virdi]

Hi all,

Sorry - This might be newbie sort of question but I have been out of the game for a while!

I am changing my son's motherboard from a Asus X570 Tuff Gaming Plus to a MSI Carbon Max WiFi.

...it is currently setup using a Corsair AIO using the standard black AM4 mounting brackets.

...so the question is ...do I just take off the mounting plate and brackets from the old motherboard and install onto the new?

..or are these backing plates unique to specific motherboards? So would I have to use a mount that is designed for the new MSI board?

Thanks
