Hi,

With the launch of the Ryzen CPU’s many of the cooler manufacturers have been trying to get the new mounting hardware ready and included in any new batches of coolers. Due to the lack of time available some manufacturers were unable to add them to any products so they will take time to trickle through to stock but they have already announced that they will send out mounting hardware when you provide them with proof of purchase of the cooler and the Ryzen CPU. I will try and keep this list as up to date as possible when we get more information over the next week.

Corsair and NZXT are trying to get the brackets out quickly but it is looking like MID-March I will keep you posted.

Manufacturers currently offering Free Kits when contacted directly:

Phanteks - Email Cooler and Ryzen Purchase Proof to email [email protected]

I ordered my NM-AM4-UxS kit from Noctua today, and happily they accepted an order confirmation email and Paypal screenshot as proof of purchase for an AM4 board. Took less than 20 minutes from me submitting the web form to them replying saying that the kit will be sent out today. Very impressive service.
 
Trust me I have been on at Corsair for a few weeks now to hurry up but they are coming and will be free. They are not the only ones struggling to get them done for the pre-orders but they should have them close to actual launch.

Well there's the table going around that showed what would need a bracket and what had out of the box capability.

https://www.overclock3d.net/news/cases_cooling/corsair_releases_socket_am4_compatibility_info/1

Which tallies with his statement. I'm gonna go ahead and guess Georges information will tally with Robbie's and that it will be mid march for the other coolers. Its nice to hear they will be free, just poor timing when much smaller companies have managed to support their products weeks in advance of release and we are getting better communication from distributors than the company itself.

Thanks again @Robbie_G
 
The issue for me is that if I was to get a Ryzen setup, I'd likely give my current rig to my girlfriend, meaning I need a new cooler anyway. Unless the Wraith cooler that comes with the R7 1700 also fits LGA 1366? Seems unlikely.
 
Tweeted for the first time in years yesterday asking NZXT if they were producing AM4 mounts :p (no response).

Cheers Robbie for the heads up :)
 
I'm about to click pre order on a 1800x setup also... But I'm not doing so until I know if i have to buy a new cooler or not.

Thanks OCUK for these informative posts by the way. They are great :)

can I assume that a decent air cooler will be fine on a stock 1800x?

Definetly. There's an 1800X SKU that comes with a Wraith cooler, which costs slightly more.

Just got a message saying new bracket is being delivered on 27th for corsair 100 ,I emailed them yesterday
 
That's interesting, I have just sent them a ticket asking about it for the H105, its one of the things preventing me from placing an order at the moment.
