Neo2 Platinum Heatsink Problem

[WickedAngel]

I recently purchased an Athlon 64 and an MSI Neo2 Platinum motherboard.

I've run into a problem, though.

The motherboard didn't come with the back panel it was supposed to come with (The one that hooks into the back of the case and covers the gaps in between the connections).

That isn't the biggest problem, however...

The motherboard appears to require mounting brackets to mount a heatsink, yet it didn't include them. I've been looking at pictures on Newegg that show everything included in the package, yet the mounting assembly wasn't pictured there.

I'm now looking at new heatsinks for the A64, and they don't appear to have this mounting bracket either.

Is there a place where I could buy these two components (The back-panel and the mounting bracket)?

Hmmm, I bought my mobo, cpu, and a stock heatsink from Monarch Computers, so it was installed already, but yeah, it needed a bracket to mount the heatsink. When I upgraded to an xp-90, thermalright sent along another heatsink, because the xp-90 needs a special one. Have you tried searching the MSI webpage or doing a google search for something like K8N Neo2 Platinum heatsink bracket?

Other than that, if you upgrade to a better heatsink, like the xp-90, it should come with it's own bracket to fit the mobo and heatsink.
