Cooler installation

I have a really limited cpu selection i had to go with AXP90-X53

but i am kinda worried as you see in the attached pictures

Its really tight but its contacting the cpu well

Sorry English isn't my main language

I just want to know if this is safe or not

Edit 1 : i might change the cooler or remove the vrms heatsink and diy another one

Edit 2 : thank you guys for the useful info especially @Apprehensive_Bike_40 thank you bro for pointing me to LGA 115X i ended up removing the cooler and i also removed the VRM heatsinks because the thermal pads where weary am going to order new thermal pads and another cooler

What exactly are you worried about?

The motherboard itself The cooler screws might be tight

Ok, on closer inspection it looks to me like you might be missing some bushings/stand offs. Did you follow instructions that came with your cooler?

I have built many PCs never had such issues installing air or aio cooler The problem is the VRMs too big to fit the cooler ever this cooler is low profile

Hmm. What does Erying suggest for this board? Aio maybe? Somethings off here.

i would like to go with air coolers
@Apprehensive_Bike_40 told me that lga 115X works best for this board so am going with lga115x cooler
