Hi!
For context, I just completed a build using the Asrock PG Lightning 670E motherboard and I had initial trouble mounting the waterblock using the included black screws for AM5.
I finally figured out that the black screws included are painted and the paint gets stripped and can get jammed in the screw hole preventing further screwing.
Would it be possible to not have the screw thread painted on these black screws? I had to get a small screwdrivers to scrape off the paint myself. I assume the tolerances for the thread on the hole and the screw itself didn't account for the paint...
