I'm struggling with mounting my Liquid Freezer 3 cooler. I managed to get three screws into the motherboard along with two in the mount, but I'm completely stuck with that pesky fourth screw on the bottom right. It seems like the cooler is on there pretty well, but I'm worried about leaving it like this. Is there any risk involved if I can't get it fully mounted? Here's a picture of what it looks like: https://imgur.com/a/nHWcu2e

It sounds like you might not be mounting it correctly. Check the manual for guide on installation. The mounting bracket should go on the motherboard first before attaching the cooler, not the other way around. Also, it looks like your bracket might be upside down. Better redo it instead of risking damage!
Yeah, that's a common mistake with this cooler. I’ve seen a lot of people make the same error. Hopefully, you got it sorted out now!
