lol. I have the rig on a mobo box and its doing better, I honestly think my issue was the heatsink stressing the board due to its weight. I'll keep you guys posted.

If its hard to get the crossbar on, then the mount is off and will stress the mobo. The backplate posts should slide a lil into the mobo holes.
