A backplate to hold the stock or other compatible CPU cooler for an AM4 motherboard. This design is slightly stronger than the original on Thingiverse, as I made the pegs slightly larger and the hole slightly smaller.
DO NOT tighten the screws more once you feel some resistance. Compared to the original design, this design won't break if you tighten it more and the screw will stay in place with some pressure, but the screws will strip the plastic.
I printed it with PETG at 0.12mm with the first 3mm for the base printed at 0.2mm. Make sure to use the highest temp possible to ensure good layer adhesion. I used 255C since I have a bimetal hot end. DO NOT go above 235C on a traditional Bowden tube hot end, you risk damaging your printer, and most importantly, your health!
