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.

finally got my megashadow and it took a little time for me to figure it out and at first it didn't work....But I finally got it (too much thermal compund). But now it it is up and running and it looks soooo pretty on my rig!!!!!! I love it and it also holds the fans better....VERY HAPPY!!!!!
