Raijintek Ereboss in Corsair 280x Case

thingiverse

Trying to put the Raijintek Ereboss in my Corsair 280x was going to be a tight fit from the start. However, using see spacers and an AM4 mount I managed to make it work. The files: Am4 mounting backplate kit: This AM4 backplate fits perfectly for the bolts of the Ereboss, as the kit I initially had only supplied mounting options until AM3+. Spacer Front: These spacers go towards the front of the case, they should just rest in place nicely. Spacer Rear: These spacers go towards the rear of the case, they have a small bridge underneath to accommodate the rivets used by Corsair. Using the AM4 backplate primted, place this onto the assembled metal AM3+ mounts received with the Ereboss, you'll want to ensure it's all aligned straight. Then just mark the new holes for the AM4 positions, make sure everything is equally spaced. Then simply drill out these new holes with a small pilot drill (2mm) then a larger 3.5mm bit. Now everything should be set, mount the backplate, and then mount the cooler as you would on the older AM3 CPU. I also smashed my AMD spite air cooler and clipped it onto the Ereboss too for se more, quiet cooling. Then place your spacers on the case, lower the glass, and tighten everything up. You will need to use longer bolts as the standard ones are not long enough. I used m4 by 20mm long bolts for this
